This book is very close to my heart. It's about no-nonsense, simple cooking with great flavours all year round. When I began writing it, I didn't really know what recipes I would come up with, but something began to inspire me very quickly...my vegetable patch! I came to realise last year that it's not always about looking out at the wider world for inspiration. Being at home, feeling relaxed and open, can also offer this. I love to spend time at home in the village where I grew up, working with the boss, Mother Nature, in my garden and seeing all my beautiful veggies coming out of the ground. Inside, you'll find over 100 new recipes, plus some basic planting information and tips if you fancy having a go at getting your hands dirty as well!

I love gardening and cooking, so this book is a very welcome addition to my book shelves. Beautifully presented, with amazing recipes and gorgeous pics...this one will make you want to get your hands dirty :)
I was given this book and I have to say that I am glad, because it really isn't one that I would have bought myself. To be honest, it is all a bit simple really and too similar to every other Jamie Oliver book on the shelves... just in different packaging. Novel idea to make it seem more "homely" by giving it a 70s inspired jacket design, but just a wee bit boring for my liking. However, having said that, if you are a Jaime Oliver fan or just someone who likes a pretty funky looking tome on your shelf, then this could be quite good. I wasn't particularly inspired, but it appears that this Bestseller certainly has commercial appeal.
I bought this as a gift for my Mum and she loves it.
Great illustrations, easy to follow recipes, and she is in the kitchen cooking up a storm.
Who said you can't teach "old dogs" new tricks... Thanks Jamie
I love this book, I purchased it after seeing the TV series and I have found it to be very well set out with gorgeous pictures and easy to follow recipes and instructions. It has sat on our coffee table since we received it and is being perused at every oportunity.
I am a Jamie fan so I was destined to have this book, but I really love it. The gardening tips are very handy and I was inspired after reading this book to get some seeds growing in my garden. Such a delight to dip in and out of.
Jamie at home is a wonderful book, the recipes are fantastic and most are simple, which I like. Also tips on growing veges and their different uses are extremely helpful as we have our own vege garden. I already have some favorite recipes out of the book including the quick tomato sauce and the pizza dough. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a passion for fresh produce and home cooking.
Easy and simple food from simple ingredients. Perfect for coming home after work not having too much time and energy to cook but still you will have a nice and healthy meal in a short time. No fuss, no complications. Book is nicely presented. A must have for beginners.
This is an awesome book, I have made a few of the recipes already but the best part is the gradening tips, you do need to adapt it to NZ dates but everything is set in the sections summer, spring, autumn and winter so that is very easily done.
I love this book, practical and yet still many new and refreshing ideas. Sensible approach and very good for NZ growing conditions and produce. Very relevant, great layout and photos. A book to keep and enjoy for years.
