Three : Acid, Texture, Contrast – Selin Kiazim Selin Kiazim is the chef-director of Oklava in Shoreditch which she opened in 2015. Her new book gives the reader the know-how on how to use ingredients from the store cupboard or fridge and combine them in a way that elevates every single element. Whether you want a mid-week meal or a centrepiece for a weekend dinner party, there is something for all occasions. She shows that a meal can be so much more than a sum of its parts through the simple guidelines of using acid, texture and contrast in each dish. Among the recipes that have had me salivating are those for apricot, mint and onion salad, roasted cauliflower with tahini and pecans and crispy fried aubergines with chilli sauce and garlic yoghurt.
