Good + Simple Cooking Tips from the Hemsley Sisters

I love reading cook books. One of the recent books that I have read is a book my brother gave me called Hemsley + Hemsley's Good + Simple. 

The book is written by Jasmine and Melissa Hemsley, who are regular contributors to Vogue.co.uk website and have been giving cooking tips to people on healthy food. Their first book, The Art of Eating Well, was a best seller. They also consult and cook for celebrities and high profile events around the world. 

The Hemsley sisters are based in  the United Kingdom and they have a Filipina mother who has greatly influenced the girls on their cooking.  In their new book, one of the recipes included is their Mum's version of Beef Sinigang.  They make use of rib-eye steak  for the meat and veggies which are available in the UK.  Below is a video that was shared by the Hemsely sisters on youtube website showing them cooking their mum's version of beef sinigang.

What I like about the book is that they provide their principles for eating well and the recipes are quite easy to follow. Plus, their recipes include meats and seafood dishes so one does not feel deprived when one opts to cook and follow their recipes.

The book features 140 recipes that are delicious, nutritious and sustainable. Recipes include breakfast, soups and stews, sides and snacks, sandwiches, salads, fish and meat, dressings, desserts and drinks. There is a also a page on shopping list and a one week reboot plan where one can prepare and enjoy food that will nourish the body, retune one's taste buds and beat cravings.
