The groundbreaking cookbook that introduced readers around the world to Yotam Ottolenghi's vibrant, flavor-packed approach to vegetables, with more than 120 inventive vegetarian recipes for everyday cooking and memorable meals.
Long before vegetable-forward cooking became a movement, Yotam Ottolenghi was showing home cooks just how exciting vegetables could be.
In Plenty, more than 120 vegetarian recipes put fresh produce, bold spices, herbs, grains, legumes, and surprising flavor combinations at the center of the plate. Organized by ingredient, the book makes it easy to turn whatever is in season-or already in your kitchen-into something extraordinary.
From caramelized garlic tart and shakshuka to soba noodles with eggplant and mango, zucchini and hazelnut salad, sweet corn polenta, and spiced red lentils with cucumber yogurt, these are generous, deeply flavorful dishes that appeal to vegetarians and meat-eaters alike.
Drawing on Ottolenghi's Mediterranean background, culinary training, and the diverse food cultures of London, Plenty helped define his unmistakable style: colorful, ingredient-driven cooking with freshness, seasonality, and plenty of surprise.
