Taking its title from a traditional dish of Trinidad and Tobago, this cookbook is at once a cultural history and a unique mix of easy-to-follow recipes, art, poems, stories, and anecdotes. The recipes reflect a fusion of the many nationalities that have shaped Trinidad, offering dishes that range from homey, traditional fare to new, experimental entrees. Following the principles of his artistic practice--whereby the knowledge of and respect for materials and their uses are paramount as a basis for investigation--the author creatively explores easily available ingredients and enhances them with the subtle use of herbs and spices to create distinctive dishes, making this a serious contribution to the ever-growing reputation of Caribbean gastronomy.

Cook-Up in a Trini Kitchen not only contains over 150 mouthwatering, Caribbean-flavoured recipes, but also beautiful watercolour paintings, drawings, poems, stories and anecdotes recounting experiences with food and cooking by the author, painter and poet, John Lyons.

The culinary inspiration for this book comes from John Lyons''s all-abiding love of food and cooking as an added fulfilment to his diversely creative life. The recipes reflect the cultural fusion of the many nationalities that have played a part in the history of his native Trinidad and Tobago. The dishes range from the homely, traditional fare of his mother and grandmother, through to new recipes which are the results of his experimentation.

Cook-up in a Trini Kitchen is a real feast of a book, not only for those who enjoy good food and cooking, it will also delight lovers of fine art, poetry and story-telling.

Contents include:
Snacks and Starters, Fish, Chicken, Meat, Soups, Vegetable Dishes, Rice, Pasta, Salads, Desserts, Drinks, Marinades, Sauces, Poetry, Watercolours, Poems, Anecdotes and much more!

John Lyons was born in Trinidad. An award-winning painter and poet, he now shares with you his passion for food and cooking.
