Nadia shows Kaye how to cook family meals such as paella, chowder, and meatballs. Follow her simple steps for yourself and you can sit down on Sunday to a perfect roast dinner, or whip up a pavlova or Victoria sponge for friends and family. Each recipe comes with a cast-iron guarantee: "If Kaye can cook it, you can cook it".
The warm and hilarious chemistry between these two best friends leaps from every page, with anecdotes, tricks and kitchen hacks dotted throughout. Nadia and Kaye want Disaster Chefs everywhere to know that help is on the way, and to reassure Kaye's children that they need no longer panic when they hear those three little words "Dinner is ready".
