An invitation to supper at Angela Hartnett’s house is a real treat. Nestled in the middle of Wilkes Street, in London’s vibrant East End, you know you’re going to get delicious food, great company and a relaxed atmosphere that is as far removed from the high-octane stress of a professional kitchen as it is from the awkward social anxiety that many of us face when hosting a dinner. Angela knows the secrets to throwing the most relaxed and enjoyable dinners for friends and family – sometimes mad, but always magical evenings that people talk about for months afterwards – and in this book she’s going to share them.

Great flavours and simple recipes abound in these pages, each one a joy to cook and eat, from satisfying one-pot dishes and comforting risottos to perfect party food and bakes to feed a hungry crowd.

Collected in these pages are over 80 recipes from one of Britain’s most-loved chefs, as well as time saving tips and cheats that will take the stress out of hosting and allow you to enjoy your dinner parties without breaking a sweat. The only essential ingredients are friends and family … and lots of them.

Angela Hartnett, MBE, is one of the UK’s most-loved chefs and restaurateurs, known for her sophisticated yet simple, Italian-inspired cooking. Born in Britain, her passion for good, honest food and the best ingredients was instilled in her by her Italian grandmother and mother. Working with Gordon Ramsay for many years, she launched Amaryllis in Scotland, Verre in Dubai and Menu and The Grill Room at the Connaught. In 2007 Angela was awarded an MBC for services to the hospitality industry, and the following year she opened her own restaurant, Murano, in Mayfair. In 2013 Angela launched the critically acclaimed Merchants Tavern in Shoreditch and Café Murano, a little sister to Murano. Angela is a regular on UK television, often appearing on Great British Menu, MasterChef and Saturday Kitchen, as well as being one of the judges for BBC’s Best Home Cook. This is her third book.

Reviews for The Weekend Cook: Good Food for Real Life

Everything one wants in a cookbook. Beautiful, elegant simplicity. Angela's gorgeous Weekend Cook is a vital addition to any cook's kitchen * Stanley Tucci * This is a brilliant cookery book by a brilliant woman * Claudia Winkleman * Incredible ... Every dish is heartfelt and flavour-led * Tom Kerridge * Whether you are planning a festive dinner party or a simple night in for two, Angela's sumptuous recipes will fill you with joy * Michel Roux Jr * I can't remember the last time I wanted to make absolutely everything in a book! Warm and welcoming ... A book I know will be a kitchen companion for many years to come * Rachel Roddy * Hartnett is generous in her hosting and in her praise * Tony Turnbull, The Times * Angela Hartnett's cooking style is refreshingly unpretentious * Daily Mail * Strong on pasta and her Italian background, the book also has hearty soups, street-party food, recipes from friends, lamb shoulder with tomatoes, chocolate mousse, and even lockdown Sourdough - lest we forget! * Church Times * It is as much a love letter to her neighbours, friends and, especially, her husband as it is a terrific collection of recipes for the non-cheffy food they eat together. You can put as much trust in Hartnett's Scotch egg method as you can in her gnocchi and floating islands. * The Spectator * Best food book of 2022 * The Week *
