The Book of Tapas

Description

From the authors of the much-loved 1080 Recipes – the Spanish cooking bible by Simone and Inés Ortega – the 1080 Book of Tapas presents a collection of over 250 definitive recipes for everyone’s favourite type of Spanish food. From gambas al ajillo (garlic prawns) to tortilla española (Spanish omelette), it combines classic tapas dishes from 1080Recipes with hundreds of brand new recipes from the Ortegas, introduced by renowned Spanish tapas chef José Andrés.
