Product Description

Review
"Moro is to Spanish food what the River Cafe is to Italian."
-Nigella Lawson

Product Description
The Moro restaurant was born out of a desire to cook within the wonderful tradition of Mediterranean food, and to explore exotic flavours little known in the UK. It is one of the most talked about restaurants and in 1998 won both the Time Out and BBC Good Food awards for Best New Restaurant. Moro: the Cookbook was a huge success. Its passionate insight into the culinary traditions of Spain and the Muslim Mediterranean and its strong vision and ethos captured readers' imaginations. Casa de Moro introduces an impressive quality and diversity of recipes that are by no means inaccessible to the average cook; ranging from Asparagus with parsley and almonds; Moroccan courgette salad; Partridge escabeche; Garlic prawns with white wine and chilli; Chicken with pine nuts, saffron and fino sherry and Chestnut, almond and chocolate cake. Taking the range of flavours beyond those covered in their first book, Sam and Sam Clark have created fresh and dynamic dishes that reflect Moro's ever-changing menu. Much more than a simple catalogue of recipes, Casa de Moro evokes Sam and Sam's extensive travels, their first discovery of Spain and Morocco and their house in the heart of Moorish Andalucia, taking the reader on a journey that resonates with delicious dishes, history and tradition. With an entire chapter dedicated to the ancient ways and cooking of Andalucia and, more specifically, the village in which Sam and Sam live, this personal, evocative account exudes romance and is written and designed with palpable excitement and elegance.

4.0 out of 5 stars 'A personal and highly evocative account of a culinary journey ...., 20 Aug 2007
By A B CeDar - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
that resonates with history, tradition and, most important of all, delicious dishes.'

'The food of 'Moro' has most of its roots in the home.......
This book has the same cultural culinary mix of Spain and the Muslim Mediterranean as our first book. However, we have also included a chapter on the wild food and traditional dishes we have come across in our Alpujarran village.
We are always interested in a sense of place with our food, that place often being the street or the home.
This book therefore prefers to be at home, as there is no substitute for the love and care of the home cook....'

Eye-catching covers open to 319 high quality pages, split over main chapters:-

Bread, flatbreads and Stuffed Breads
Soups
Tapas & Mezze, Starters and Light Meals
Salads and Cooked Moroccan Salads
Fish Main Courses
Meat Main Courses
Vegetables
Grains & Pulses
Home-Made & Home-Cured
Puddings & Cakes

plus sections entitled 'Casa Moro' and 'Las Alpujarras and Wild Food', along with the appendix which includes 'Basics and Stocks', and a full index.

Each recipe is preceded with some relevant narrative, a full list of ingredients then the clear method.

Foreign and English titles, where applicable.

Interspersed with 'on-location' photography and useful 'step-by-step' methods.
ALTHOUGH.....perhaps a slight negative may be that this volume is a little light on photographs of the finished dishes - which may be less appealing to those of us who like to see what we are aiming for on the plate - but it is easy to forgive this with the general flow of this well-written, passionate book.

Recipes include:-

Almond Cake
Turkish Pizza with Tomato, Lamb and Allspice
Thick Gazpacho
Chicken Dumplings Broth
Seafood Salad
Garlic Prawns with White Wine and Chilli
Salt Cod, Orange and Potato Salad
Warm Tomato Bread & Garlic Purée
Winter Tabbouleh
Black Ink Sauce
Scrambled Eggs
Deep Fried Sardine Balls
Roast Pork with Quince Purée
Quail with Grapes & Ginger
Tangia
Paella
Saffron Potatoes
Harissa
Orange Flan
Anise Biscuits
Pomegranate Molasses
Rice Pudding
Beef Tagine with Prunes - and what better excuse to purchase a Le Creuset Tagine - one of the reasons why this book was recommended to me in the first place!

Overall, my favourite recipe is 'Kate's Sherry Trifle'!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book packed with yummy recipes, 3 Jun 2007
I think this book has to be the best cookery book I have bought so far! The variety and amount of recipes is exceptional. Have cooked three so far this week alone, and was not disappointed. The Carrot Puree with Caraway and Feta is to die for! I never realised carrots could taste so good!

Casa Moro is an enjoyable read, full of easy to follow yummy recipes with nice colour photographs. I look forward to trying many more great dishes.

The only negative I would say, is that the dessert section leaves a lot to be desired. There are not many recipes and most are various ice cream dishes which if like me, you don't have an icecream maker are not much good.

Its a small negative, and overall I am extremely happy with my purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spot On!, 29 Mar 2005
By A. Weston "Adrian Weston" (Brighton, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I reviewed the original Moro cookbook less than favourably - I felt it was a case of poor translation of recipes from restaurant to domestic kitchen as it suffered from uneven spicing and some odd proportions. This could not be less true of Casa Moro which is now my constant kitchen companion - perhaps this one succeeds because it's what the two Sams actually eat at home. The recipes are enticing, instructions clear and the flavours gorgeous - oh take me to Marrakesh now!

My favourite recipe from far too many favourites is the subtle and enticing layered dish called Chicken Fattee - OK it's a comedy name to us unsophisticated types, but it's a dizzyingly rich and smoky dish which has the added virtue of amply feeding 8 people from one medium sized chicken. Yum!
