The Doctor’s Kitchen: Supercharge your health with 100 delicious everyday recipes: Supercharge your health with 100 delicious everyday recipes

I am going to wax lyrical about this book. I read the whole introduction in one enjoyable sitting. I appreciate that it is written by a doctor and has reference to the most current research on lifestyle. His story is also authentic - having turned his own diet around while working in A&E. I was looking for a book that would introduce me to spices (I think the key to switching to less sugar is FLAVOUR), some new ingredients and recipes, new breakfast ideas, full of flavour, easy enough to make, and get me into more vegetables. This book has all of that. I wanted to wait until I had tried a few before reviewing. The recipes seem well thought out - if you follow them exactly you really do create the most delicious flavour combinations. I was worried about putting on weight but I've actually lost 7lb in a month of following the book. Favourites so far: Chestnut and thyme peas with brocolli Cardamon and chia breakfast Garam lentil omelette Mexican Mole Mexican Black Bean Chilli Za'atar Bowl To be honest every dish I have sat down and gone wow that tastes amazing. I can honestly say I will try 90% of these recipes, that's rarely the case with a cookbook. My only tweak has been to use less chilli, as I find it kills the other flavours, but that's personal preference. The only criticism would be that it would be helpful to have calories / fat etc. for those on weight loss diets, and it would also help to have the prep/cooking time as I've had to work that out for planning purposes. I noticed later most recipes are labelled 'Gut / Heart Health' etc. which is great.

Interesting book. Good selection of recipes. Handy information around healthy eating. I follow the Dr on Facebook where he provides lots of helpful tips on a healthy lifestyle.

I purchased this book as I wanted to cook some healthier dishes but also learn about the advantages of certain foods. The book is really useful and contains a lot of great information but I felt the recipes weren’t that’s suitable for a family. I have however just tried one of the dishes (see picture) which I served with cauliflower rice (this was a first for us but not detailed in the book). My husband and I loved the dish, it was tasty and felt healthy but our 3 year old wasn’t keen. Will certainly try other recipes as this (for us) was successful.

Amazing book with lots of healthy alternatives for meals. Sound advice. Love this book . Will probably buy his others. For anyone like me who cannot eat regular foods like wheat, sugar plus many other things this book is a life saver.

There are some great recipes in here and I really enjoyed the introduction. Have done three already. I like his tone too and the variety of ideas. Like other reviewers have said, nutritional values are missing. Also some oddities in quantities, for example chai seed recipe states 2 tablespoons of chai seeds to 180ml milk but the 'tip' says 1 tablespoon to 60ml is ideal! 75gms of porridge oats seems a lot for 200 ml of milk too..very thick porridge I would guess, especially when other bits added. Chestnut broccoli breakfast very generous and lovely, the good for you broth however in reality serves one, not the two stated. Having said that, I look forward to trying out more recipes.

Amazing recipes with so much variety, ehile being extremely affordable and really quick to make. Came here after watching his series on BBC and loving the recipes on the there. Hands down this is the best cook book I've ever bought and not had a single bad recipe yet.

This is one of the best cookbooks I've ever bought and I've got hundreds .I'd never heard of Dr Rupy until I was flicking through a supplement at the dentists last year which featured a couple of his recipes .I'm mostly vegetarian and have always hated sweet things for breakfast and the egg/mushroom combinations were getting a bit boring so the savoury recipes in the Breakfast section have been a revelation-the Breakfast Nut Roast in particular -I make it twice a week now and have it for breakfast with a fried /scrambled egg or for lunch ,delicious with beetroot ,Greek yoghurt and a tomato salad or warm it up and use it as a nut roast with veg for dinner .Dead easy to make though I find it holds together better if you add a small beaten egg to the mixture ..I sometimes like to have plain porridge for breakfast in the winter but while I like the taste I'm not keen on the texture but the Carrot and Ginger Oats recipe has solved that problem .And the Raspberry Adzuki Slices are out of this world-think brownies , lovely and gooey on the inside ( adzuki/black beans , prunes or dates and raspberries ,cocoa powder and almond flour ) with a crunchy crust on the outside with barely a grain of refined sugar to be seen. I choose new cookbooks by opening them at random three times and if the random recipes are ones I would cook I often buy the book . Inevitably there at some recipes in any cookbook which don't appeal but with the possible exception of a recipe for whole roast broccoli I shall be cooking everything in this book . Informative and well researched ( there is a 4 page section at the back with references for those who want to look into the science of healthy eating in more depth ) this book should be available on prescription , it'll save the NHS a lot of money in the long run.

Some basic insights and alternative recipes that I tried to cook at home. The author teaches us how to uses and combine spices and the importance of good quality produce on our tables.

So so tasty and not complicated. He explains everything in normal terms and I loved the extra info on various veg and spices.

Interesting read and some good veg recipes.

Great explanation, great recipes

Dr. Rupy Aujla is an actual doctor, and it shows. He explains why certain foods help your body without making it boring. I learned so much from reading this cookbook—not just recipes, but how food actually affects my health. His philosophy is that food is medicine. His recipes focus on anti-inflammatory ingredients and gut health. What I appreciate is how he makes healthy eating feel doable, not restrictive. He's not telling you to never eat carbs or avoid entire food groups. It's balanced and based on real science.
