Review
Waterstone's Books Quarterly "Reading it you can imagine yourself sitting under a tropical sun sipping a frozen mango daiquiri and savouring a plate of jerk chicken." 'The Independent "Winning recipes" Heat magazine "If you want a barbecue with a difference this summer, look no further." The Independent, 50 Best Cookbooks "This book's menu of dishes -- from mash-up eggs and Guinness punch to sweet-potato pudding -- proves there's more to Jamaican cooking than goat curry." Hot Stars "Accompanied by Levi's own anecdotes, these dishes are sure to spice up every mealtime!" 4Food (Channel Four Food) "Levi Roots has gone from budding entrepreneur and musician to the established face of Caribbean food in the UK in just 10 months."
Product Description
TV's dragon slayer Levi Roots brings carnival to the kitchen with his hot'n'spicy debut cookbook. After winning over the business minds of The Dragon's Den with little more than a song and a smile, entrepreneur Levi Roots has since sold more than one million bottles of his delicious Reggae Reggae Sauce. Building on this success and his ever-growing popularity as a food hero, Levi Roots now has his very own cookbook! Levi Roots' Reggae Reggae Cookbook brings the excitement and vitality of Caribbean flavours to your own cooking. An eclectic and colourful range of recipes from simple dishes for students to fantastic feasts for friends are all accompanied by heart-warming anecdotes in Levi's incomparable tell-it-like-it-is style. This bright and colourful book brings together influences as diverse as Jamaican folk tales, Notting Hill Carnival and the music of Bob Marley to create family-friendly food with that famous jerk kick. Levi Roots' Reggae Reggae Cookbook will surely add a funky beat to what you eat! Levi Roots' Reggae Reggae Cookbook features more than 80 simple and exciting recipes such as Mash-Up Eggs, Salmon St Jago de la Vega , Guinness Punch, Rum Cake and Sweet Potato Pudding. Levi also offers a diverse range of vegetarian dishes and puts a Caribbean twist on classic European favourites such as pizza and pasta. Contents include: Everyday Caribbean, Rise and Shine, Reggae Flavours, Carnival, Sweet Satisfaction, Reggae Extras

Old Jamaica...,
By
This review is from: Levi Roots' Reggae Reggae Cookbook (Hardcover)
Ahh... The memories of my mothers cooking when she was alive came flooding back once I purchased this book. I know how to cook the recipes but I wanted to have the book as a momento as I never write my recipies down.
It isn't just a cookbook, the book interspersed with stories of Levi's upbring and his adventures as a young man.He is an amazing man just like a lot of older Jamaicans. There are also beautiful pictures of the island rickety old signs that have fallen down but still manage to sucessfully advertise the spicy, delicious food to be had in the next building, lol. This book is lovely. A pleasure to have at my house and the recipes are all authentic, rustic Jamaican cooking. It actually makes you feel good. Break out the rum punch and have a pattie cooked and prepared by your own hand and you'll never look back. Enjoy!

I love reggae reggae food!,

This review is from: Levi Roots' Reggae Reggae Cookbook (Hardcover)
My friend bought me this book because she knew I was a great fan of Dragons Den and she had seen me consume a fair few bottles of Reggae Reggae Sauce since it hit the shelves.
Firstly I took a flick through the book and read Levi's amazing life story which really helps to give you an idea of the Jamaican culture behind the food. And then I threw myself right in because I was inspired by the food on offer. I prepared a meal for my housemates which they loved. The next day I baked a Jamaican Ginger Cake because I really like the cake you can buy - Levi's recipe is a lot better! Do yourself a favour and put some music in your food! I hope I can gather some friends together and prepare some Jamaican dishes and drinks for them all to enjoy. Even better, everyone help out in the cooking, put some music on, and enjoy the energy of the food. If Reggae Reggae Sauce and this book are anything to go by, then I really hope that Levi Root's restaurants take off because there is certainly space for Jamaican food in this country. Please do another book with more recipe's!

A breath of fresh Caribbean air ...,
By Juno (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Levi Roots' Reggae Reggae Cookbook (Hardcover)
If you're fed up with cook books stuffed with airy fairy recipes that you'll never use, then I think you'll love this one. Clear, simple, entertaining, and a right good read, I think it's one of the best cook books I've read in a long while.
I had no idea who Levi Roots was until I picked this up in the book shop the other day (I don't watch TV and was never into reggae) but if he's half as warm in person as he comes over in his book, then he must be a really nice guy! Buy it - I think you'll like it.
