Rice, Beans and Grains explains the nutritional value and versatility of this food group, including all the different types of rice and pulses and how to cook them. Beautiful full-colour photographs accompany each of the recipes, which range from a variety of side dishes to try, from Japanese red rice to chickpea and rice balls, to quick main dishes, such as butter beans and bacon on toast, or sausage and bean hotpot. For a more substantial meal, why not try the turkey biryani with raita, Tuscan-style baked polenta or flageolet bean and lentil lasagne?
