Akito Greenland

Tell me I’m wrong, you think that those stunning Japanese dishes only exist on your Instagram feed? Now imagine if you could recreate that fine-dining experience quickly and easily at home – well, with me you can. I’m Akito, a Japanese-British chef making food an Asian grandma would be proud of, and mine is, despite my English accent. As well as Japanese dishes such as: crispy katsu curry, sweet and salty teriyaki salmon and soul-deep ramen, I’m serving up spicy Korean fried chicken and the perfect egg fried rice on a budget. Inside you’ll discover 40 easy-to-follow recipes, with beautiful plating that’ll have you all over your guest’s stories (If they don’t tag you, I’ll have words with them). No one decides on dinner by thinking beef, veal, or chicken. You want something cheap, quick, familiar, or even a little culinary challenge. That’s why I’m chucking the traditional chapters and chopping this book up into ‘Low Budget’, ‘Ready in 15 minutes’, ‘Fakeaways’, and ‘Challenge’. I’ll even let you know which recipes you can re-use ingredients on, so you’re not having your spenny food shop expiring in the back of your fridge. So let’s get started, and together we’ll make amazing food, that could only be described as Oishii!
