Due to dietary intolerances we don’t often get takeaway but now with this great book we can have all the meals we’ve been missing out on. presenter Chris Bavin, The Medicinal Chef Dale Pinnock and Chinese food aficionado Kwoklyn Wan, have all just released cookbooks that revolve around the idea of making takeaway food at home.Chris Bavin's 'Fakeaway' promises some healthy fun for home cooks looking to lose weight or who are feeding family or friends with special dietary requirements. I added ginger to the curry sauce because a dish without ginger isn’t a world I want to live in, and it definitely amped up the flavour. Divided into chapters on American, Chinese, Indian, Italian and Middle Eastern classics you'll find recipes which take just fifteen minutes to cook, slow-cooker recipes that do the hard work for you, and menus that will feed up to four people. After being dunked and coated in each, my ‘scampi’ hit a baking tray and then the oven for 10 minutes.

As the days get warmer, you may not necessarily want a filling curry with all the associated extras. Chinese food is ideal for a veggie diet as it makes the most of fresh vegetables and meat substitutes, and uses very little dairy - but at the same time packs fantastic flavour into everything. Vegan Fakeaway offers 70 recipes that deliver fast, easy, vegan takeaway classics that will make sure that you're able to indulge, whenever the craving strikes.Just chuck in some baked beans and a couple of sweetcorn cobettes and you’ve got yourself a full-blown KFC Fakeaway! Lamb jalfrezi is a perfect slow-cooked recipe, but sometime we just don’t have the time to use cuts of lamb that take ages to tenderise. The book also easily identifies on which recipes are suited for Vegans, Vegetarians or Gluten/Dairy free, so no one is left out.
