Food writer and bestselling author Rukmini Iyer shares how her recipes bring families together, the importance of flavours and the joy of finding a delicious, easy solution to dinner.

Rukmini is the bestselling author of The Roasting Tin series, which in five years has sold over 1.75 million copies worldwide. They’ve transformed the cookery space in the UK, leading the one-tin, one-pot, and one-pan revolution, and remain firm favourites among cookbook buyers who love Rukmini’s minimum fuss, maximum flavour recipes. Rukmini makes regular appearances cooking live on morning television and is the newest weekly columnist for The Guardian’s ‘Feast’ magazine. 

Her newest book, The Green Cookbook, a collection of delicious and simple planted-based recipes, is out now.

Rukmini’s book choices are:
** Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë
** Cold Comfort Farm by Stella Gibbons 
** The Secret History by Donna Tartt
** The Power by Naomi Alderman
** The Flavour Thesaurus by Niki Segnit
