Synopsis: Getting your first flat is one of the most exciting times of your life. Cooking for yourself is part of the fun, but balancing the demands of a job with a busy social life can leave little time to make proper food. Written from Tiffany’s own first flat, this book is perfect for busy lives and small budgets. There are recipes for nights when you’re in on your own; mid-week get-togethers with friends and weekend breakfasts and brunches.

When you’re in a rush the chapter of 10-minute meals will feed you even faster than a takeaway, and then when you’ve got a bit more time to potter there’s a chapter of cakes, puddings and other irresistible naughtiness. You’ll even find a selection of dishes to impress a hot date, as well as great party food to share. With masses of step-by-step photography and clear instructions, Tiff’s recipes could not be more simple to follow.

Each chapter opens with a how-to recipe teaching essential skills, such as how-to make risotto, soup, or joint a chicken. And there’s no excuse for waste as she suggests how to reuse leftovers in tasty new ways. With so many ideas in one small book, The First Flat Cookbook should be the first thing you unpack when you move in.

We loved Tiffany’s first book, From Pasta to Pancakes and this second book is equally perfect for its target audience, Tiffany’s style is very approachable and based on her own experiences. Written from her own first flat, with really helpful step-by-step photography, this is a perfect gift for anyone moving into their own home for the first time. It is also a really handy guide for anyone looking for quick and easy recipes. We love Tiffany’s commentary and her very personal way of describing the recipes. A fun and fabulous first cook book! Highly Recommended!
