Allibhoy, chef and owner of a chain of U.K.-based Spanish food and tapas restaurants, collects a vibrant array of low-fuss dishes. He shares his best recipes, many passed down from generation to generation, for weeknight meals, weekend lunches, larger gatherings, and tapas. All are authentic and simple and hail from various regions of Spain. Allibhoy makes a concerted effort to employ simpler techniques and familiar ingredients to make these recipes accessible to home cooks of every level. Sangria and meat focaccia highlight appetizing nibbles that segue into hearty and robust meat and game dishes such as Moorish marinated lamb cutlets and Spanish chicken cordon bleu. Fish and seafood dishes are equally appealing, including clams fisherman style and mussels in a cream sauce. Eggs and poultry also feature prominently, as do vegetables, which are substantial enough to star in entrees such as green asparagus with serrano ham, stuffed zucchini, and broad beans with chorizo. The chapter on paella and rice, is outstanding with mouthwatering recipes for seafood paella, baked rice with pork ribs and sausage, and more.
