Description

'I want to eat everything in this book every single day for the rest of my life' - James Acaster

'Sweet and funny ... as well as genuinely insightful about cooking' - Hadley Freeman, The Sunday Times

'As touching as it is delicious' - The Evening Standard

From Spaced, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz to Paul and Truth Seekers, Nick Frost has lit up our screens for decades with his perfectly observed, just-the-right-side-of-absurd sketches and films. He's also a keen, self-taught cook and this book is his passionate love letter to food, kitchens and the people in them.

Whether it's learning to cook his mother's beef stroganoff, making 'Pies in a Bowl' for Simon Pegg, preparing a Greek salad for an entire film crew or serving up porridge for his kids, this is Nick's celebration of family and friendship, process and technique, and the solace that cooking brings. It's the pleasure of escaping into a world of hisses, blips and the thunks of a knife on a board and sharing lasting memories with those you love over a comforting plate of food. A Slice of Fried Gold is a delicious mixture of hearty recipes, stories and digressions from one of Britain's most loved actors and writers.
