About this book:

Ready to become a kitchen hero?

Social media sensation Fehmz explodes onto the cookbook scene with recipes as bold and unapologetic as she is. Whether you’re a kitchen newbie or a seasoned home chef, her flop-proof instructions guarantee results. Her infectious energy jumps off every page, turning everyday cooking into an adventure.

Her debut cookbook Damn Good Food brings the playful, flavour-packed meals she is famous for from screen to page in a collection of over 80 recipes. Bring Fehmz’s magic - loved by hundreds of thousands of followers across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook - to your kitchen.

Damn Good Food offers not only her family’s tried-and-tested classics - think mutton akhni, mince curry and coconut pudding – but also fun twists such as chilli bite waffles, karak ice cream, kataifi millefeuille, and even gloriously quick meals like sticky jam chops, lemon chicken and peri-peri prawns. In this cookbook, you’ll find enticing recipes that draw you into the kitchen, easy swaps, a great conversion guide, and a whole chapter dedicated to flavour-boosting essentials like her universal magic masala, red dynamite sauce, and an easy (and addictive!) fruit sprinkle.

This is more than a collection of recipes - it’s an invitation to have fun in the kitchen and fall in love with cooking.

Inside these colourful pages you’ll find:

• FLAVOUR BOMBS that transform ordinary meals into extraordinary ones

• FAMILY TREASURES Authentic heritage recipes celebrating Fehmz’s rich cultural roots

• EASY PEASY Quick weeknight wins that taste like you slaved for hours

• FAKEAWAYS Restaurant-style dishes that’ll have you deleting your delivery apps!

• JUST BLEND IT Effortless recipes where your blender does all the work

• RAMADAN SPECIALTIES Nourishing dishes perfect for breaking fast and feeding loved ones

• SWEET CRAVINGS Show-stopping desserts that’ll have them begging for seconds

• CRUNCHY SURPRISES Innovative recipes that add excitement to every bite.

No fuss. No pretence. Just DAMN GOOD FOOD.
