Ryland Peters & Small, £22
London-based Mexican chef Adriana Cavita’s debut cookbook is both a heartfelt ode and an informative guide to the diverse cuisines of her homeland. Walking the reader through the staples of Mexican cooking, she starts with basic building blocks such as moles (sauces), salsas and tortillas before moving on to the dishes with which to enjoy them. Expect an array of tamales, tacos, soups, stews and desserts, all interspersed with fascinating tales and photography from across the country.There’s a section dedicated to breakfasts and another focusing on festive feasts, which tend towards flavoursome meat- and fish-heavy recipes. Cavita’s Mexican-style turkey, for example, served as part of a Christmas meal, comes stuffed with an exuberance of beef, pork, olives and nuts. You’ll find plenty of everyday inspiration in this book, too, including a selection of beautiful salads and street foods, along with drinks for all occasions, whether it’s punchy, agave-based cocktails or agua frescas (flavoured waters) made with nuts, fruits, spices and flowers.
DK, £22
