Winner of Best Cookbook at the Observer Food Monthly Awards

Why don't we eat more veg? They're healthy, cost-effective and, above all, delicious. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall believes that it is time to put this to rights, as he explains in this brilliant new book.

He's come up with an abundance of veg-tastic recipes, including a warm salad of grilled courgettes, lemon, garlic, mint and mozzarella, a winter giant couscous salad with herbs and walnuts, radishes with butter and salt, lemony guacamole, linguine with mint and almond pesto and cherry tomatoes, baby carrot risotto, new potato gnocchi, a summer stir-fry with green veg, ginger, garlic and sesame, a winter stir-fry with Brussels sprouts, shiitake mushrooms and five-spice, a cheesy tomato tart, a spring onion gallette, roast jacket chips with merguez spices and spiced yoghurt, curried bubble and squeak, scrambled eggs and asparagus with lemon, tomato gazpacho, pea and parsley soup, roast squash wedges, baba ganoush, beetroot houmous, spinach pasties and barbecued corn on the cob.

With over 200 recipes and vibrant photography from Simon Wheeler, River Cottage Veg Every Day is a timely eulogy to the glorious green stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm seriously impressed....

....with this book. It's truly an eye-opener on what could be achieved with veg 'only' in a meal. I wanted to build on the repertoire I had built up on the back of buying Dale Pinnock's excellent 'Medicinal Chef' and I have not been disappointed.

This book says it has 200 recipes in it, with probably 200 hundred more if you take into account the variations, plus two hundred more that have been kicked off in my head (I'm not exaggerating). As odd as I know this is going to sound, I find that I now cannot buy enough veg to play with. I have truly been inspired. I was getting bored with my diet and needed to improve it and make changes.

I absolutely admit that I wanted to lose a bit of weight, but I was more concerned (honestly) about feeling better - less sluggish, less bloated, etc. I have not had to do a lot as I do eat quite healthily anyway, but I have ramped up the amount of veg and pulses in my diet and dialled down the amount of bread (nothing wrong with bread but I love it and I can really pack it away!) plus some other minor changes and noticed the results very quickly indeed (within days).

I can honestly say that I am not hungry.

This book has given me more confidence to explore spices, cheeses, and other ingredients/flavour combinations that I have been a bit nervous to try. Nothing is over-powering (in my view) and everything I have made have been really very delicious, not to mention quick and easy to make.

I know that Hugh is a bit of a 'Marmite' TV chef, but his recipes have worked for me every time and taught me an awful lot a flavours and combinations. Whatever anyone might think of the man, I have to say that this book works brilliantly for me personally. I cannot put it down and I cannot stop cooking from it. It's enlightened, imaginative and modern, but realistic to time pressures and convenience. There is nothing in this book that I could not find locally and nothing I would not try and a lot of things I would make again and again. I'm really glad I bought this book and am more than happy to give it five stars and fully recommend it.

As a meat eater I don't tend to go to vegetarian cook books, but respecting the diets of some recent guests I experimented with few of dishes from it. I'm hooked. A great book with easy to follow, simple but different, and extremely tasty vegetarian dishes that can easily accompany and make your meat feasts special. Apologies to the none-meat eaters out there who've been keeping this gem a secret.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love love LOVE this cookbook
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 June 2016

I love love LOVE this cookbook. I've had it for a couple of years now but recently bought it for my vegetarian friend (I'm also vegetarian). i'm aware not all of the recipes are vegetarian as it's not really a 'vegetarian cookbook', but I find you can adapt those recipes. I've tried quite a lot of these recipes and I've never had one turn out less than delicious. I find them relatively easy, the ingredients lists are usually not too long and even when they are, they're usually easy to source. I find them very adaptable too, I'm converting to vegan but I find there are alot of recipes that are vegan anyway and for many others (not all) you can substitute stuff. This is probably my favourite cookbook to date and the one I use the most often (and I have alot, including Rose Elliot's New Complete Vegetarian, which is also excellent, An Appetite for Reduction by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Keep it Vegan by Aine Carlin among others).

The ovenbaked ratatouille is so delicious and makes a huge batch so you can eat it for lunch for about 4 days, and it tastes even better each day. The magic pizza dough is a staple of mine, you can make it and keep it in the fridge for about a week, so I make maybe pizza one day, then garlic flatbreads the next, and then another pizza etc. I often make the Raid the Larder Soup' when I'm ill, as it's full of such goodness and tastes so comforting, it always makes me feel better. I also recommend the aubergine parmagiana (without parmasan for the veggies though obviously), the panzanella, the courgette and quinoa salad and the potato and swede pasties. In fact, I recommend it all! Seriously, if you like vegetables and are looking for some new and yet simple ways to cook them, get this book, you won't be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Yummy!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 June 2016

I bought this book a few years ago and after a quick glance, I wasn't excited. I never used it until recently when I thought to make some vegetarian meals to reduce our food budget. After looking through other cookbooks, I realize how great this one is. I had thought River Cottage was overrated, but now I'm converted. First off, every recipe has a picture. This really makes a difference, especially for someone a little intimidated with vegetarian food. A lot of recipes I would never think to make, but when I see the pictures, I'm hooked. The sweet potato and peanut gratin is one that comes to mind, or the kale and onion pizza. They both look delicious. But there are so many yummy looking ones. Examples are lettuce, spring onion, and cheese tart, corner shop spanakopitta, potato dauphinoise, pizza with new potatoes, rosemary, and blue cheese, and fritata with summer veg and goat's cheese, to name a few. I find the ones with cheese the most interesting and there are quite a lot of them, but there are also plenty without like oven roasted roots frittata, puy lentil and spinach soup or the Asian-inspired coleslaw. Clearly, the book has so much more.

As you can see, these are recipes with basic ingredients you can find in your local store, but they seem flavorful and interesting. The best thing is, this book has so few desserts. I hate when half a cookbook is filled with desserts and this happens more often than I'd like. This one has maybe two or three. It's filled with real, healthy, fabulous food. I would totally recommend it. I only give it four stars because you still have to be a little adventurous to attempt some of the recipes, but I think it's definitely worth trying.

Este libro es uno de mis libros favoritos de cocina. Hay gran variedad de recetas usando la verdura de manera muy sencilla pero con grandes resultados. Lo he regalado en dos ocasiones porque me parece, además, que su presentación y encuadernación son muy bonitas. Resaltar que el autor no es vegetariano ni el libro va en esa línea. Trata más bien de mostrar cómo la verdura puede tener un gran número de formas de prepararse con resultados espectaculares sin presencia de la carne.

Wonderful. With the simplest of ingredients, Hugh makes veggie cooking really fun, and eating them really great. One of our favourite recipes is spicy carrot and chickpea pitta pockets, which is basically carrots, cumin, paprika and chickpeas in pitta bread with yogourt, but it's amazing, comforting as pizza, and just as delicious. The book is terribly easy to use too with a great index and enticing photos. It's just so easy to get everyone involved, choosing something to make, and doing it together. I saw someone wrote that the recipes are a bit wacky and how curious to put potatoes on pizza, something I thought too. But in reality, having made the pizza with the potatoes, it is absolutely amazing, and we all adored it. Thanks so much Hugh.
