Mostly this involves giving up meat and dairy and instead using vegetables, pulses and grains to create easy, delicious dishes that all just happen to be vegan. In this book, Georgina draws on the history and culture around nistisimo cooking in the Mediterranean, Middle East and Eastern Europe to share the simple, nutritious and flavour-packed recipes at the heart of the practice, including: · Salatet malfouf cabbage slaw· Briam ('Greek ratatouille')· Pumpkin, raisin and harissa pie· Kibbet el raheb, 'monks' soup' · Jewelled lentil moutzentra· Rizogalo rose rice pudding with roasted strawberries· Moustokouloura spiced grape, honey and chocolate biscuits Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, or simply want to eat more plant-based food, Nistisima offers you tried and tested recipes that celebrate the very best of this tradition – all bursting with flavour and all surprisingly vegan. --_'Mouthwatering recipes and beautiful storytelling – I want a seat at Georgie’s table.'

This book is the sunny window that everyone needs: open it to flood your kitchen with Mediterranean sun, delicious food and great stories.

The only proper response to Georgina Hayden’s new book, Nistisima, is greedy delight, as far as I’m concerned * Nigella Lawson *
‘Georgina has collected bakes, sides, suppers and puds (all plant-based) laced with layers of flavour and dollops of love. You’ll find old chums like tabbouleh and meet new friends such as Serbian ajvar (a roasted red pepper relish) and “astonishingly tasty” briam (Greek roasted veg)’ * Delicious Magazine *
‘Once in a while, a new cookbook makes you think “Genius!” This is one of those – a collection of mainly vegan recipes from countries where abstaining from meat for religious or cultural reasons is the norm… Carefully researched and lovingly written, and the recipes are excellent’ * The Independent *
