A cookbook that argues that today, too many chefs and home cooks alike plan their meals around the meat (or protein) and carbohydrate components, letting the vegetables play second fiddle. In this book, Wilkinson lets his favourite 24 vegetables take centre stage. This illustrated book will appeal to vegetarians but it's not a vegetarian cookbook. Among the more than 90 recipes, there's plenty of recipes that incorporate meat, but it's the veg who are the true stars.
