Sorted for Beginners: Taking the Fuss Out of Food

by SORTED Crew

Beginners Get . . . Sorted, brought to you by Ben Ebbrell, Barry Taylor and the rest of the fabulous Sorted crew, is the perfect cookbook for those who want simple, fun and seriously tasty meal ideas!

The Sorted crew are a bunch of childhood friends who decided to help each other with their cooking dilemmas when they all left home to go to university. Now they are 24-year-old graduates and are broadcasting their recipes to thousands of viewers and subscribers to their Sorted food channel on YouTube - the most popular cookery channel on the site. With 800,000 views a month, the Sorted recipe demonstrations help you knock up meal after meal of cracking food, seasoned with a healthy dose of fun.

Whether a complete recipe rookie, a busy parent in need of inspiration, or a student faced with a small food budget, Beginners Get . . .Sorted will help solve all of your own kitchen dilemmas. Ben Ebbrell and Barry Taylor's cookbook is perfect for those in need of some cooking confidence and inspiration.

The 'Sorted' gang came together in their university holidays, initially sharing their cookery ideas and woes, and then, in their spare time, becoming a huge youtube sensation. They also found time to self-publish two recipe books, A Recipe for Student Survival and A Rookie's Guide to Crackin' Cooking, which Penguin have combined to produce the ultimate guide for anyone who needs a little help in the kitchen.

About the author

Ben Ebbrell and Barry Taylor head up The Sorted Crew, a group of childhood friends who got together during their university holidays to share anecdotes, assumptions and problems that they were each facing during their first year away from home. After mocking each other's laughable set of domestic skills in the kitchen, Ben decided to help them out with recipe ideas and 'Sorted' was the result. With Ben cooking and Barry taking photographs and using his design skills, the crew set themselves up on YouTube to upload filmed recipes, and these SortedFood video recipes now get millions of views every month. They have self-published two recipe books, A Recipe for Student Survival and A Rookie's Guide to Crackin' Cooking, and Beginners... Get Sorted was their first book with Penguin.

Easy to follow recipes, with gor-juss pictures to show you the steps and final product. Some unique twists on tea time classics which I enjoyed trying out, taken some copies of certain recipes to try out in the future! Liked this recipe book as a whole! :D
