Take Three

Jill Dupleix, Geoff Lung (Photographer)

Take three ingredients and make great food; a simple approach to cooking which puts freshness and flavour first. It's about reducing recipes to their essential elements, and creating meals of beauty and simplicity. Jill Dupleix has drawn on ingredients and inspiration from all over the world and the result is a book full of stylish and sophisticated recipes to take you through the day. Each recipe is built around three building blocks, the three flavours which can make or break a meal. Take bread, tomato, garlic; prawn, chilli, ginger or clams, beans and mint. Add to these a small supporting cast of storecupboard ingredients and the result is simple cooking with stunning results. With its down-to-earth style and stunning photography, Take Three is not just a cookbook - it is a book which will change the way you cook and eat.
