Rosie cooks the food you want to eat all the time – unpretentious and delicious.’ – Angela Hartnett Make Sunday night the best evening of the week, by perfecting the last, lazy meal of the weekend. Most of us want to forget that back-to-school feeling by kicking off our shoes and hunkering down with a soul-soaring supper – one that can be eaten with friends at the table, with book in hand by the fire, or in front of the TV. In less than half an hour of cheerful cooking, you can achieve Sunday night nirvana. Chef Rosie Sykes is an expert in the most comforting, nostalgic and heart-warming recipes, and here she gathers more than 50 of her greatest creations, most of them achievable in the time it takes to run a bath. Rosie makes Things on Toast that will make you weep with joy: Anchovy toasts with parsley and shallot salad, or Caerphilly with leeks and mustard; one-pot dishes to stop and savour, such as Stewed spiced butterbeans with tortillas and feta; easy egg dishes like Bacon and egg pie, or Bombay potatoes with a fried egg; delightful Remains of the Day, using leftovers from the roast – Chicken harira, Epic bubble and squeak; and if you just want a soothing cocktail and a snack, summon up your inner Sherlock with a 'Reichenbach Falls' or clink glasses with the Bloomsbury set while sipping a 'Woolf' and nibbling at Devils on horseback. All the recipes in The Sunday Night Book are simple and make clever use of store cupboard staples and leftovers. This is truly the best kind of cooking, the perfect way to extend the weekend and drift relaxed and contented into a new week.

Download or read book The Long Weekend written by Adrian Tinniswood and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From an acclaimed social and architectural historian, the tumultuous, scandalous, glitzy, and glamorous history of English country houses and high society during the interwar period As WWI drew to a close, change reverberated through the halls of England's country homes. As the sun set slowly on the British Empire, the shadows lengthened on the lawns of a thousand stately homes. In The Long Weekend, historian Adrian Tinniswood introduces us to the tumultuous, scandalous and glamorous history of English country houses during the years between World Wars. As estate taxes and other challenges forced many of these venerable houses onto the market, new sectors of British and American society were seduced by the dream of owning a home in the English countryside. Drawing on thousands of memoirs, letters, and diaries, as well as the eye-witness testimonies of belted earls and bibulous butlers, Tinniswood brings the stately homes of England to life as never before, opening the door to a world by turns opulent and ordinary, noble and vicious, and forever wrapped in myth. We are drawn into the intrigues of legendary families such as the Astors, the Churchills and the Devonshires as they hosted hunting parties and balls that attracted the likes of Charlie Chaplin, T.E. Lawrence, and royals such as Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson. We waltz through aristocratic soiré, and watch as the upper crust struggle to fend off rising taxes and underbred outsiders, property speculators and poultry farmers. We gain insight into the guilt and the gingerbread, and see how the image of the country house was carefully protected by its occupants above and below stairs. Through the glitz of estate parties, the social tensions between old money and new, the hunting parties, illicit trysts, and grand feasts, Tinniswood offers a glimpse behind the veil of these great estates -- and reveals a reality much more riveting than the dream.
