Overview:
This two-book collection from Ghillie Basan brings together Vegetarian Tagines & Cous Cous and The Lentil Cookbook, creating a complete vegetarian kitchen in one handsome hardcover set. Vegetarian Tagines & Cous Cous invites you to explore fragrant, meat-free Moroccan cooking that relies on seasonal produce, clever spice blends, and slow-simmered sauces for depth and comfort. Expect lighter tagines that prove meat-free meals can be both satisfying and hearty, such as Roasted Cherry Tomato Tagine with Feta and Preserved Lemon and Roasted Pear, Fig and Walnut Tagine with Fennel, alongside heartier options like Roasted Sweet Potato Tagine with Ginger, Cinnamon and Honey, and Spicy Carrot Tagine with Chickpeas, Turmeric and Coriander. The Lentil Cookbook shifts the spotlight to lentils as a powerhouse pantry staple—nutritious, versatile, and incredibly affordable. From Lentil and Pasta Soup to Lentil Dhal and Haddock with Spicy Puy Lentils, this volume shows how lentils adapt to soups, salads, bakes, and comforting mains while offering practical guidance on varieties and cooking techniques. Together, these volumes form a cohesive, plant-forward culinary journey for everyday meals and entertaining alike.
What Makes This Collection Special:
Two complementary volumes from a respected food-writer create a coherent, binge-ready cooking experience built around vegetables, pulses, and global flavors. Vegetarian Tagines & Cous Cous delivers vibrant Moroccan inspiration—perfect for meat-free weeknights, date-night dinners, or weekend feasts—without dairy or meat, yet with maximum warmth and aroma from spices, citrus, and preserved ingredients. The Lentil Cookbook expands those flavors by showcasing lentils in a wide range of formats: soups, salads, stews, and even kofte-style bites, illustrating how a single legume can anchor diverse cuisines. The hardcover design ensures durability for daily use, while the unified voice across both books makes this set an excellent gift for veggie dreamers, pantry planners, students starting their own kitchen, and collectors seeking a well-curated North African–inspired collection.
