Packed with delicious recipes, exotic flavours, tips to swap and techniques to learn, this gorgeous collection of recipes is the Hairy Bikers at their best.

Author Biography

Si King hails from North East England and is a big, blond, bearded biker with an infectious laugh. His love of food was established at a young age when his father brought exotic ingredients back from his Royal Navy voyages. Born and bred in Barrow-in-Furness, Dave Myers joined the BBC as a make-up artist, and while travelling the world with hit TV series he picked up recipes with Si, Dave's travelling companion and the other half of the hairy bikers. They have been entertaining and feeding Britain with their unique blend of delicious recipes, cheeky humour and motorbike enthusiasm for years now. They are regular faces on the BBC, fronting programmes such as Mum Know's Best, and The Hairy Bikers' Bakeation. http://www.hairybikers.com/ https://twitter.com/HairyBikers
