Teage Ezard is a chef who pushes the boundaries of his craft. His groundbreaking cuisine has won him international acclaim; his experimentation with flavours and textures is fearless. Inspired by the roadside vendors and hawker markets of Thailand and Malaysia, and by the simple art of Chinese dim sum, Lotus is a wonderful collection of new recipes and stunning photographs. This is food for all occasions, to be shared around a table with family and friends. The dishes are designed to be served generously in bowls or on platters, and eaten with chopsticks, forks or fingers - casual, communal and simple dining at its best. Generously designed and a delight to cook with, Lotus is a book to be used and treasured by anyone who enjoys sharing good food.
