An invitation to supper at Angela Hartnett’s house is a real treat. Nestled in the heart of 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. Recipes include:
Potato and Wild Garlic Soup
Braised Oxtail
Whole Trout with Almond and Herb Stuffing
Sunday Night Cupboard Spaghetti
Queen of Puddings
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.

* 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 *
As warm and wise as its author * The Mail on Sunday *
