Chef and busy working mum Karen Martini loves spending time in her home kitchen - making quick and healthy lunches, creating elaborate feasts for special occasions, or simply experimenting with different ingredients. In Home, she shares her absolute favourite flavour-packed dishes to put on the table for family and friends. There are solutions to mid-week dinner dilemmas, such as pan-fried salmon with zucchini, mint and chilli, as well as knockout dishes for that special dinner party, such as red-wine braised beef cheeks with celeriac and parsnip puree. Super-quick breakfasts include corn and cheddar fritters with avocado and cumin salt, and there are heaps of fresh and healthy salads, such as soba noodles with bean sprouts, ginger and sesame. You will find nourishing wintery soups and vibrant summer ones; creative pasta and rice dishes that will keep the whole family happy; and delicious sweet treats, from simple biscuits to Karen's all-time favourite pavlova recipe. Home also features a gorgeous Christmas chapter, with eleven inspiring and achievable recipes for any festive occasion. This book is all about cooking and eating well. Original, fresh and bursting with flavour and colour, the recipes in Home will inspire you to cook up delicious and memorable food for yourself and your loved ones, from the simple and nourishing to the detailed and indulgent.

What I’m reading right now… “Swimming in the dark” by Paddy Richardson & “Chez Panisse” by Alice Waters & Rene Redzepi’s kitchen journal.

My favourite book growing up… The Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. It was food related and a pop-up…what more could a child want?! From the large chunks of watermelon to cherry pie…heavenly.

My all time favourite book is… “Miss Smillas Feeling for Snow” by Peter Hoeg & anything by Haruki Murakami. 

The book I would recommend everyone to read … “Farmageddon” by Philip Lymbery…I haven’t even read it yet but the core focus should be a strong message worldwide. 

The book I wish I wrote… The Harry Potter Series…it’s very popular I hear.

My guilty reading pleasure is… Scandi crime.

The book on my bookshelf that I have never read… “Barracuda” by Chris Tsiolkas

The book that never should have been turned into a film… Any of the Anne Rice Chronicles 
My book is… delicious and achievable. 

I’ll never forget… the first day I entered a professional kitchen.

My favourite place is… by the sea.

The most dangerous thing I have ever done is… give birth to two children.

The first time I… had friends over for dinner was when I was 15. 

I regret… my gothic years and the photos taken.

I remember… Stellas first word.

The one piece of advice I should have listened to but didn’t… who has time to remember regrets when you are looking to the future. 

I love… to cook. 

I hate… that I did not embrace technology earlier. 

I wish… I could sing.

I can’t say no to… dark chocolate

Yesterday, I… should’ve got more sleep.
