30 minute vegetarian Turkish cookbook - Sarah Beattie

The next title in Thorsons' successful 30 minute vegetarian series. Other titles include: Thai, Indian, Mexican and Italian. Over 120 delicious Turkish quick dishes - ideal for snacks and after-work suppers

Turkish cuisine is possibly the most imaginative of all Mediterranean styles. The Turks have long enjoyed meat-free dishes and Sarah Beattie has travelled extensively through Turkey to research the local dishes to find all that is most delicious and exciting.

The Turks have been making both pasta and pizza (pide) for longer than the Italians. And Muhlama, a rich fondu, is said to have predated the Swiss version by centuries.

Pulses, rice, nuts, herbs and spices all play an integral role in Turkish cooking.

The book contains over 120 recipes, with simple step by step method. All ingredients are available from your supermarket and there is a handy store cupboard list to ensure you always have the staples.
