A practical approach to cooking with less fuss

Christine Flynn’s cookbook gathers 98 recipes around the idea of getting more from less time, effort, and waste. Drawing on her restaurant experience, she offers strategies for building everyday meals, including starting with a sauce, making use of pantry ingredients, and bringing seasonal produce to the plate. The examples range from green beans with fried lemon, hot honey, and almonds to skillet eggs with red pepper butter, alongside a “breakfast for dinner” approach. The emphasis is on practical methods paired with visual appeal, giving the collection a clear focus on streamlined home cooking without setting aside flavour or presentation.

Book overview

98 simple recipes with big personality that save time and money without sacrificing flavour or style.

In her third cookbook, Christine Flynn takes decades of restaurant experience and distills it into simple strategies that anyone can use to enhance their culinary repertoire and confidence. Easy Does It is about doing more with less. Less effort, less time, less fuss, and less waste. It's about knowing which corners are worth cutting in the pursuit of mouthwatering food--without sacrificing the joy that comes from eating visually stunning and delectable dishes.

Christine's cooking puts practicality first. She encourages us to start with a sauce when dreaming up our next meal because not only is a great sauce a springboard to creativity, it can make even the simplest of dishes stand out. Other strategies for streamlining everyday meals include pulling from the pantry when running to the store is beyond you, or celebrating the season's freshest produce by jazzing it up to create beautifully plattered dishes like Green Beans with Fried Lemon, Hot Honey, and Almonds. She brings a "breakfast for dinner" mindset to dishes like Skillet Eggs with Red Pepper Butter or Baked Eggs with Ham and Gruy
