About the Author
Levi has since launched Levi Roots' Love Apple Tomato Sauce and Levi Roots' Fiery Guava Dipping Sauce, and six cooking sauces are currently in the pipeline. Reggae-Reggae burgers can be found in bar and pub chains across the country, and Subway sells a Reggae Reggae Chicken Sub in its UK outlets. Levi's first cookbook, the Reggae Reggae Cookbook, published by Collins this year, has been a great success. Levi creates delicious West Indian recipes in the kitchen of his new South London restaurant, Papine Jerk Centre. As a successful reggae musician, he has performed with James Brown, was close friends with Bob Marley, has sung to Nelson Mandela, and was nominated for a MOBO award in 1998. His Roots Reggae album is coming out soon.

Watched the first episode of this series last night and quite enjoyed it, I have also had this book for a good two weeks and put it to the test (or taste?) at least 5-6 times so far.
All the recipes are explained very clearly, the pictures just make your mouth water and the results are fab and seriously tasty.
I haven't used Scotchbonnet peppers yet as they are fierce but regular hot peppers are fine and can obviously be adjusted to taste to enjoy all the other flavours, and there are plenty... (This to answer any criticism that Scotchbonnets are hard to find or the food too spicy).
My children spent last summer with their Jamaican grandparents and they were literally jumping up and down when looking at the lovely pictures, memories, memories...They bookmarked most of the fish and chicken recipes, so I do not have to look too far for inspiration these days...
In short, just love this book and its tasty offerings.
Thanks Levi for bringing the sunshine in !

I purchased this book as I was very interested in Levi Roots' recent television show. I fully expected not to be able to cook all of the recipes or perhaps not even tobe able to resource all of the ingredients. I was wrong! The book is wonderfully easy to read, has easy to follow recipes and details stockists of the more obscure products but luckily there are not many. levi gives guidance on how to make your own spice mixes and stocks where appropriate. Overall the ingredients are on the shelves in every high street supermarket. The recipes are delicious right down to the prawn pasta which tastes wonderfully fresh and authentic despite being a fairly simple recipe. This book is an absolute winner and I am going to cook everything in it!

I cooked a recipe from the book and was totally overjoyed with it especially since my step dad is Jamaican. He thoroughly enjoyed and it and was very impressed with it. Levi Roots cooked the same meal the following day on his BBC2 programme so i was thrilled to see that mine turned out the same.
Very well illustrated and easy to follow book.
Would recommend it to anyone.

Good condition
A colourful book with great photos, a good intro to Caribbean cookery. Thin enough not to be a huge book in the kitchen too.
