Growing your own produce is the best way to cook

Kumar Pereira
For Kumar Pereira, food and design have always been his passion. The Sri Lankan-born graphic designer and cook started this book as a series of hand-drawn recipes that he made for his sons to cook from when he was going away for a few weeks. Then came MasterChef, where Kumar was one of the most popular contestants - ever " Kumar's Family Cookbook" features simple yet luscious recipes, many inspired by the cuisine of his native Sri Lanka, as well as beautiful drawings, family anecdotes, and photos.
