Levi Roots heads to Islington

By Mark Kebble on July 25th 2010

Levi Roots, the man who famously slayed the dragons and whipped the nation into a Caribbean frenzy with his spicy sauces, is back with another ‘fabulocious’ book to tickle the taste buds. This time he’s showing us how to share the love with our mates by bringing a Caribbean twist to our dinner table, whatever the occasion.

Levi Roots Food for Friends is packed with over 100 mouth-watering dishes and covers any meal time from brunch, lunch to picnic, special occasions and even high tea ideas. In each recipe Levi shows how to spice up a traditional favourite – so good old Shepherd’s Pie becomes Caribbean Spiced Shepherd’s Pie, pork chops are transformed into Pork Chops Calypso, a simple supper becomes Smoked Fish Choka and a classic dessert is remodelled into Mango, Banana and Passion Fruit Trifle.

From lip-smacking BBQ recipes and dishes for family celebrations, to flavoursome fruit puddings and delicious dinners, Levi Roots Food for Friends makes entertaining fun and easy. Written in Levi’s inimitable style and accompanied by stunning photography by Chris Terry, you will be whipping up a Caribbean spread in no time.

Catch Levi Roots at Waterstones Islington on August 4. Levi Roots Food for Friends is published by Mitchell Beazley on August 2, priced at £18.99 (hardback)
