Lara Lee is a cookbook author whose debut book Coconut and Sambal came out in 2020. She’s now back with another, A Splash of Soy, a beautiful vibrant orange tome full of gorgeous quick recipes to bring joy to your midweek meals.

I caught up with Lara on zoom from my hotel room in Greece - I need to tell you about the breakfast buffet at some point - to chat to Lara while she was visiting London for some book press, including Saturday Kitchen. We talked about how A Splash of Soy came out of her joy for cooking rising from the ashes of lockdown and early parenthood, and she talked me through some of the incredible sounding breakfast recipes in it.
