Book Description

6 Sep 2012

You're All Invited is Margot Henderson's first cookbook.

Want to cook dinner for fifteen? Have fifty people for drinks and canapés? Feed your family comforting food at lunch time? Make an elegant dinner for eight? Transport quantities of food to a picnic so it doesn't spill and crumble?

In You're All Invited, Margot Henderson, who cooks for between 30 to 200 people every day, shows you how: using her panache as a caterer for Arnold & Henderson and restaurateur at London's Rochelle Canteen, and drawing on her family life with Fergus Henderson and their three children, she provides 165 easy and delicious recipes for all occasions.

'Margot Henderson is one woman who knows how to throw a party . . . her long awaited cookbook is already gaining a similar status to [husband Fergus's] Nose to Tail books... one of those must-have cookbooks packed with easy recipes for every occasion, whether it's a romantic meal for two or a hangover breakfast' Crumbs Magazine

'Pick up Henderson's book immediately. You'll be glad you did . . . if [Margot] says you're invited, you should definitely go' Telegraph Magazine

'Oh, my word, this is an extra special cookery book. I have not enjoyed reading one as good as this for many years' Simon Hopkinson

'"Generous, warm, relaxed, fun and stylish" - this is what Margot describes as the essentials for entertaining. Add to that delicious recipes, and you have this exceptional book from an exceptional woman' Ruth Rogers, The River Café

'Within this book there are recipes for every occasion and mood; all written with great simplicity and understanding. This is a wonderful cookbook that really makes one want to cook' Samantha Clark and Samuel Clark, Moro

'Sometimes I think Fergus is the second best cook in the Henderson family. This book proves it' David Chang, Momofuku

Born in New Zealand, Margot Henderson moved to London when she was 20. She set up Rochelle Canteen with Melanie Arnold as a base for their catering company Arnold & Henderson which they started up while running The French House Dining Room in Soho in the 90s. Margot had previously worked in many other restaurants including First Floor, 192, The Quality Chop House and The Eagle in Farringdon. She lives in London with her husband, Fergus Henderson, and their three children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Recipes 5 Nov 2012
By CSM
The ethos of this book is the enjoyment of good food and good company: from simple classics to more ambitious fare, this is cooking without fuss, with the emphasis on the pleasures of sharing the end result. The writing style is warm, unpretentious, the directions clear without being patronising. The recipes are eclectic and offer advice and inspiration for both the everyday family meal and the more lavish feast. The kind of book you could work through from beginning to end, and look forward to starting all over again, it will make you want to reach for your address book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Some interesting options to make a star 5 Nov 2012
By Gareth Wilson - Falcata Times Blog TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Food for me is all about making a star of one ingredient but accompanying it with others that compliment and build upon that flavour profile and this is the approach that Margot Henderson takes in this title. The reader is treated to various options for different times of the day with rich flavours and foods that may seem simple but let you know about making the most of the items within.

It's a great read, it has so many different choices with items that will compliment the star with my personal favourite being the Lemon Potatoes that seems magnificently decadent with a roast chicken. Add to this simple instructions, wonderful flavour profiles and all in this is a book that will definitely make its way into my Christmas menu.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you would expect 19 Jan 2013
This is a wonderful book from the lady at Rochelle canteen in London. This is my favourite place in the country to eat however I live in Bristol so can't always get there for lunch.
The recipes are al quite straight forward and will not take too much sourcing or attention. The cooking its self can be a little tricky if you are cooking for small numbers or time is an issue.
I would recommend this book to anyone interested in beautiful and elegant cooking as this book will surely allow you to reach a that goal with your food.
Also the little stories at the beginning of each recipe and the photography make this book the best gift Ive had in quite a while.
