Full of simple, yet innovative, travellers' favourites, World Street Food is the cookbook for all young travellers and all beginner cooks. Carolyn and Chris Caldicott, co-founders of London's World Food Cafe, recreate the tantalizing tastes of street stalls and night markets, trattorias and tea-houses, camp-fire cook-ups and comfort food in back-packer cafes. Carolyn's recipes simplify on-the-road classics, using ingredients that you don't have to go to the ends of the earth to find and providing clear cooking instructions. Chris's stunning photographs transport you back to the Mediterranean as you concoct aubergine parmigiana or piperrada sauce, to the Atacama Desert as you relish a pepper, potato and chorizo tortilla, to the heights of Table Mountain as you munch bunny chow, to a rooftop cafe overlooking the Ganges as you tuck into an easy biryani, to the pagoda cafes of Burma as you enjoy khao coconut rice noodles.
