Description

‘Fantastic Turkish-Cypriot food’ – Yotam Ottolenghi

‘Welcome to the extremely tasty world of modern Turkish-Cypriot food – what a stunning and beautiful book’ – Peter Gordon

‘This woman can bloody cook’ – Grace Dent, Evening Standard

‘Keep an eye out for Selin Kiazim, because she is going places, in every conceivable way’ – Giles Coren, The Times

‘Swoon’ – Time Out London

With influences from the Mediterranean, Southern Europe and the Middle East, Turkish-Cypriot food offers incredible flavour combinations unique to its region. Oklava: The Cookbook celebrates the culinary delights of this area in a way no cookbook has done before.

Oklava translates simply as ‘rolling pin’. For Selin Kiazim, this word conjures up memories of her Turkish-Cypriot grandmother: a rolling pin was never far from her hands, which meant a delicious treat was imminent. The same can be said for this book. These sensational recipes will take you on a journey from home-cooked meals and summers spent in North Cyprus to an exciting interpretation of modern Turkish-Cypriot cooking in London.

Bring the Oklava experience into your home with Turkish delights such as Pistachio-crusted Banana & Tahini French Toast with Orange Blossom Syrup & Smoked Streaky Bacon; Grilled Quails with Palm Sugar, Sumac & Oregano Glaze; Courgette, Feta & Mint Fritters; Crispy Pomegranate-Glazed Lamb Breast with Yoghurt; Chilli-Roast Cauliflower; and Chocolate, Prune & Cardamom Delice.
