Just George

In Just George, George Calombaris, one of Australia's most well-known and celebrated chefs, takes readers through the recipes that have shaped George’s life and career. With 80 recipes, Just George includes plenty of the delicious Greek dishes with a twist that George's food is know for, as well as some favourites from across his many successful restaurants (including the famous ancient grain salad), the food he cooks with his family, and recipes passed on from some of George’s fellow foodies. Covering dips and spreads, vegetables with protein (Tomato gemista with sea bass tartare & lemon marmalade), sweets and cheeses (Raspberry & mastiha sorbet), pantry staples and Main dishes (Soft shell crab souvlaki), the recipes offer a window into George’s world, referencing his Greek heritage, but incorporating other influences, including his decade working with MasterChef talent and his more than two decades running restaurants in Australia.
