More than 90 flavoursome and easy-to-make recipes, perfect for couples, roommates or solo adventurers craving hearty, satisfying dishes. Becoming an adult and leaving the home you grew up in - and your parents' cooking - can be a daunting experience, but mealtime doesn't need to be. Whether you've moved away for university, into a share house with your mates or you're living with your partner, Tom's Diner is all you'll need to turn your kitchen into your favourite restaurant that brings everyone together. Using no-fuss ingredients that won't break the bank, Tom will teach you how to make everything from handheld faves such as burritos and burgers, to one-pan delights including stir-fries and tray bakes. There are also mouth-watering classics like spaghetti with meatballs, barbecued ribs and a true-blue Aussie meat pie, plus a selection of sensational sweet treats such as jam-filled donut balls and homemade ice cream. Escape the same old weekly roster of recipes and make real food, real easy.
Tom started working in a kitchen at 16 as a dishy, before moving on to a patisserie where he learnt his true appreciation and respect for the time and effort going into creating delicious food. Today, Tom is a much-loved content creator, sharing his recipes online in an attempt to encourage other young people that cooking tasty food is achievable, and mealtime doesn't always need to be something fancy.
