Homely, unfussy, humble, understated … Greenfeast’s lexical field suggests such simplicity that one might wonder whether this food deserves a book. James creates, directs and produces their television programmes and wasFood Director of the stage production of Toast. I have been shredding the smoky blue-green savoys, tossing them into a pan of hot oil with matchsticks of ginger, minced chilli, garlic and soy sauce. If you have already submitted another request to index a book or magazine yourself, please do not make any additional requests until you have indexed and submitted that book or magazine.Slater certainly has an aesthetic eye for a dish, the food is presented like a painting and I love the choice of dish/ background. Photograph: Julian Broad/The Observer Nigel Slater: ‘Greenfeast is a collection of what I eat when I finish work every day: the casual yet spirited meals with which I sustain myself and whoever else is around. Cook over a moderately high heat for 10 minutes, covered, until the fruit can be crushed to a purée.

I've made one of the recipes (it hasn't been all that cold yet and these foods are definitely for warming a body on dark, chilly days) and while it wasn't perfect, I could tell exactly what I would need to do to make it to my liking. I could read Nigel Slater's books all day, and when I go this book, in July it came to work with me for a week. If I have yoghurt, blackcurrant compote and pumpkin seeds at breakfast, it will be in that little book.

Likewise, a lunch of green lentils and grilled red peppers, or a dinner of roast cauliflower and a bowl of miso soup. Instead, he's simply providing options and ideas, based on what he himself would like to eat for dinner.

Cookbook review: Greenfeast: Spring, Summer by Nigel Slater Cookbook review: Greenfeast: Spring, Summer by Nigel Slater

Slater's recipes are never not intuitive and, mostly, the ingredients lists are mercifully short – the same goes for Greenfeast. The simple act of making someone something to eat, even a bowl of soup or a loaf of bread, has a many-layered meaning. Toast was published in Britain in October 2004 and became a bestseller after it was featured on the Richard and Judy Book Club.This is such a pretty book to look through, this is a cookery book you could just look through for pleasure. A few have been crushed to a purée and served as a fool – the best being those caramelised with sugar and cloves, then folded into whipped cream and proper custard. As suggested, I added some cooked pasta, which made for a satisfying meal - great flavor with the smoked mozzarella and sprouts; I only added half the cream, which was still plenty. Wash the rice in warm water, drain, then put it in a small, deep pan, cover with 300ml of cold water and soak for 30 minutes.
