For Jamie Oliver, food is all about happy days - not just cooking superbly fresh and funky ingredients, but good fun, great eating and top-quality time spent with friends and family. Now Jamie, one of Britain's best-loved chefs, gives us his third book, 'Happy Days'.
Jamie believes in finding the best ingredients and making tasty, easy, sociable food with the minimum of fuss. Like his first two books, 'Happy Days' is filled with fantastic salads, pastas, meat, fish, breads and desserts for all occasion. He gives tips on shopping and how to find the best produce in 'Shortcuts To Shopping'. There are some old favourites in 'Comfort Grub', and in 'Quick Fixes' he whips up really quick, tasty dinners perfect for those late nights back from work.
The 'Kids' Club' chapter is all about catching kids' attention and getting them interested in food. It's a starting-point for children, to encourage them to have a go at other things in the book with their parents. Get them squashing tomatoes, pouring olive oil, pitting olives and making bread in no time - they'll love it. A chapter is also dedicated to 'Fridge Friends' (lovely, snacky things like preserved lemons or marinated feta that can be kept in the fridge) and 'Foody Prezzies' - perfect for Christmas and birthday surprises.
Enjoy yourself, get stuck in . . . happy days!

James Trevor 'Jamie' Oliver, MBE (born 27 May 1975), frequently nicknamed The Naked Chef, is an English chef and media personality well known for his growing list of food-focused television shows, his more recent roles in campaigning against the use of processed foods in national schools, and his campaign to change unhealthy diets and poor cooking habits for the better across the United Kingdom.
On 24th June 2000 Oliver married former model Juliette 'Jools' Norton. The couple met in 1993 and have four children, three daughters: Poppy Honey Rosie, Daisy Boo Pamela, and Petal Blossom Rainbow. Baby boy Buddy Bear Maurice arrived in September 2010. Oliver announced Petal's birth via Twitter. They live in Clavering, Essex.
The Naked Chef (1998-1999) was Jamie Oliver's first series. The title was a reference to the simplicity of Oliver's recipes, and has nothing to do with nudity. Oliver has frequently admitted that he wasn't entirely happy with the title, which was devised by producer Patricia Llewellyn. (In the UK edit of the show, the opening titles include a clip of him telling an unseen questioner, "No way! It's not me, it's the food!") The success of the programme led to the books Return of the Naked Chef and Happy Days with the Naked Chef.
