A Splash of Soy: Everyday Food from Asia is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.

Named after the simplicity and usefulness of soy, Lara Lee's new cookbook introduces 80 game-changing recipes that close the gap between classic Asian dishes and quick-to-table family meals. Some recipes only require a little chopping and a boiled kettle, as well as 15, 30, and 45 minute meals fit for weeknight dinners or no-fuss dinner parties.

Lara explores the vibrant array of sweet, salty, umami, sour and spicy Asian flavors, with inventive brunch ideas like:

  • Tom Yum Bloody Mary
  • Zesty sides like Sambal Patatas Bravas
  • Simple noodles like Cheesy Kimchi Linguine with Gochujang Butter
  • And many more punchy curries, stir-fries and rice recipes from glazed meat to fragrant veggies.

She also includes pantry swaps and vegan substitutes so these fuss-free recipes can adapt to your own busy kitchen.

With tales of heritage and culture woven into every recipe, A Splash of Soy transports readers to different parts of Asia, sprinkled with the Australian influence of Lara's upbringing. It is a book for foodies and beginner home cooks everywhere, showing you can make a memorable, delicious meal with steps as simple as adding just a splash of soy.

“Simple beautiful food to electrify the tastebuds.” - Meera Sodha From the internationally celebrated author of Coconut & Sambal , a cookbook on Asian home cooking, done quickly with ease and minimal mess.
