The spiralizer is the most innovative tool in healthy eating – creating tasty low-carb, low-calorie noodles, ribbons and ‘rice’ from everyday fruits and vegetables, all with the feel-full factor of real pasta. There’s never been an easier way to eat your five a day, and more. If you are trying to diet, the spiralizer will be a revelation – a standard portion of spaghetti bolognese contains around 270 calories, compared to just 50 calories for a massive bowlful of courgetti! The book gives a guide to the different kinds of equipment and their usage, all the techniques for spiralizing vegetables and fruits, and a fantastic collection of recipes to try including soups, salads, all kinds of pasta, rosti, risotto, ‘pizza’, curries, stir-fries, frittata, tempura, tarts and even desserts, cakes, breads, crackers and muffins. Gorgeous photographs by Nicki Dowey show the step-by-step method and inspirational results.
