Let's Eat: Recipes from my kitchen notebook

By Tom Parker Bowles

Published: April 2025

ISBN: 9780008743703

  • Tom Parker Bowles gives us over 140 of his kitchen staples; the dishes he cooks day in, day out. This is home cooking at its best – Fish Pie, Shoulder of Lamb with Pommes Boulanger, Noodle Soup, Treacle Tart – all shamelessly indulgent, but straightforward to prepare and affordable.

    Tireless in pursuit of a good dinner, Tom Parker Bowles has eaten some of the best food in the world – and then recreated his favourite dishes in his own kitchen, with the recipes jotted down in a food-splattered notebook. Some of the recipes in this book are inspired by food cooked for him by friends and family, some by more formal dinners, some by his travels. But all have been recreated by Tom to make them easy for the home cook to prepare.

    A chapter on Comfort Food is packed with family favourites such as My Mum’s Roast Chicken, Fish Goujons with Pea Purée and Sticky Toffee Pudding. Quick Fixes features Hot Buttered Crab and Provencal Bean Salad, and in Slow and Low Tom cooks up his famous 10-Alarm Chilli and Slow-Cooked Ragu. Dishes inspired by his travels, such as Ceviche or Laotian Chicken Salad, also feature, alongside a chapter on Cooking for Children, with crowd-pleasers like Fish Pie Jnr and Spaghetti Bollynaise.

    Tom has cooked every recipe in his home kitchen again and again before including it in this book. He also explores the basic ingredients that are essential to a good dinner, such as fats and stocks, offering suggestions on how to prepare and cook with them. Let’s Eat is an irresistible hotchpotch of delicious recipes; a trusty cookbook written in Tom’s distinctive voice means it’s a book that you’ll want to read from cover to cover.
