The book balances low effort, weeknight friendly recipes with more immersive dishes meant for leisurely cooking. Drawing on childhood memories and global travels, the recipes celebrate connection, tradition, and the joy of sharing food.

About Ottolenghi
Yotam Assaf Ottolenghi is an Israeli-born British chef, restaurateur, and acclaimed food writer. Together with Sami Tamimi, he co-owns nine delis and restaurants in London and Bicester Village and has authored a collection of bestselling cookbooks, including Ottolenghi: The Cookbook, Plenty, Jerusalem, and Simple.
In 2002, chefs Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi joined forces to create a space that was part food shop, part deli, part restaurant, and part bakery—yet not easily defined by any single label. Above all, it reflected their shared passion and near-obsessive love of food. From this beginning, Ottolenghi developed a distinctive culinary style rooted in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean traditions while embracing ingredients and influences from around the globe. Their dedication to celebrating vegetables and showcasing unique, unexpected flavors has inspired what many call “The Ottolenghi Effect”—a way of cooking that brings together color, abundance, vibrant flavor, and pure joy on the plate.
