Annabel Karmel is the UK’s No. 1 children’s cookery writer. The author of 37 books and the UK’s 4th best-selling cookery author , only just behind Jamie Oliver, Delia Smith and Nigella Lawson.
Now Annabel has turned her attention to the whole family, taking on the challenges of cooking around busy family life. Annabel’s Family Cookbook contains 100 easy to follow recipes ranging from everyday family dinners and weekend get-togethers, light meals, snacks and lunchboxes.
Annabel describes this as “A speedy stir-fry for busy weeknights. This dish can be made with pork or chicken – both will taste delicious”. I must confess, I am usually a bit disappointed with stir fries that I make, but this one was full of flavour, the honey and the sauce really made the vegetables and chicken sing.

My Favourite Family Recipe Is Stew, We All Love It No Matter What Time Of Year
Janice Pattie says
There's so much you can do with stew, isn't there? It's never the same twice.
Madeleine Morrow says
I used her weaning books like a bible when my kids were babies and toddlers. She was really important to me in the kitchen in those days. Good that she has written a book for older family members as she has a strong following
Janice Pattie says
She came along with her books after my boys were past that stage, but I've looked at some of them and they are very good.
Jane Sarchet says
I'm definitely going to try that sauce Janice, thanks for sharing!

Love stir fry of all sorts! Sugar peas must be a great addition 😉
Janice Pattie says
Yes, they work really well in a stir fry.
Karen S Booth says
I LOVE the look of this stir-fry Janice and the book looks great too!

Thanks Karen, it's a keeper!
Tina Chawla says
I've seen her products in the supermarket and have heard good things about her.
Janice Pattie says
I didn't know she had products, must look out for them. Thanks Tina.
Choclette says
Another great review Janice. I love books like this that are about real cooking rather than lots of fancy stuff most of us are never going to make. I've made apricot and white chocolate cookies a few times and they are a firm favourite.
Janice Pattie says
It is good to have achievable recipes and different types for different occasions too.
Gillian Holmes says
Roast Lamb
Janice Pattie says

I can't believe she has 37bbooks. Goodness. I used her books when learning what to cook for the mini chefs.
Janice Pattie says
Yes, that's quite an achievement.

An iranian dish my mother (who is scottish) learned from my Iranian father's family. It consists of green veg, lamb and it's stewed with rice. Very delicious x
