Fresh Mob: Over 100 tasty healthy-ish recipes Kindle Edition

It started out as an idea in 2016 when Lebus noticed that none of his university friends could cook and, “armed with nothing but a kitchen, a camera and some recipe ideas”, he started creating overhead videos that people could actually cook from. As a London-based company, Mob has historically focussed on London-based talent and championing businesses in the local food scene. Freya has been integral in spearheading coverage of some of the vibrant and exciting food scenes outside of the capital. With that in mind, we wanted to publish a book that called for using only a handful of ingredients. 6 ingredients to be exact (excluding cooking oil, salt and pepper. Every single recipe using 6 ingredients or less.Working alongside nutritionist Lucy Sommer, we’ve established our own fresh criteria with a focus on balance and flexibility at the core. This, for us, is a much more realistic and honest stance on how people really eat. We know that sometimes wholemeal just won’t cut it and that some crust ciabatta rolls are exactly what you’re after. We get you – because we think the same thing. Life’s too short not to eat pasta. We’re not here to tell you how to live your life, we’re just trying to help make it more delicious. Ben x

Mob — The Fresh One Mob — The Fresh One

Not only that, the content garnered brilliant engagement from the Mob with 600K organic views and a 4.2% engagement rate — both over benchmark. Being from Newcastle herself, she felt that more northern representation, in particular, could help to build an even stronger connection with our nationwide audience. Hodder & Stoughton has signed Fresh Mob: Over 100 Tasty, Healthy-ish Recipes, the fifth cookbook from the popular food platform Mob. Since the start of Mob, we have been making delicious, wholesome dishes. Lots of these have centred around comfort food. Over the years, you have requested that we make a healthy-ish cookbook time and time again. A book filled with recipes that they can make day-in, day-out. And that is what we have created with Fresh Mob. A recipe book filled with over 100 delicious, healthy-ish recipes for all occasions. Light. Fresh. Nourishing. Wholesome. Warm salads. Grilled dishes. Beautiful fish. Lovely soups. Stews. Roasted veggies. Seasonal food that you'll cook time and time again.

From the book: Mob 6: Tasty 6-Ingredient Meals

Each edition will have its own theme, and contain a selection of easy-to-make, affordable recipes for the Mob to recreate at home, all using ingredients that are readily available from Aldi stores across the country. Big news, Mob: we've got a new cookbook coming out. It's called Mob 6. And the aim of Mob 6 is simple. We want to prove that you can cook something special – not just a half-decent dinner but a memorable meal your mates will be raving about for years to come – using just 6 ingredients. It might not sound like a lot of ingredients, but that’s kind of the point. Cooking doesn’t have to be ridiculously complicated or expensive to be delicious. At Mob we’re best known for our engaging videos and recipe content, but did you know the teams also work on some beautiful written content? Last month we launched Pinch, a digital magazine exclusive for Mob+ members, to give a home to more of our editorial content. The first edition was published in April and features 18 additional exclusive recipes including a deep dive into creating the perfect Fish & Chips, a bumper desserts feature and a 9 step guide to creating incredible Pastel De Nata at home. It doesn’t stop there - Pinch also features some incredible editorial content. April’s edition includes a feature from our new wine columnist Hannah Crosbie on everything you need to know to talk about wine confidently - as well as a sneak peek into what products the Mob team are buying this month. Sustainability is a key pillar of Mob's ethos, so it’s fantastic that we’ve been able to partner with Love Food Hate Waste to deliver messaging around how we can change our behaviours with food for the good of the planet. As a result, we’ve been able to pilot new types of content, all while staying committed to our core values and messaging.

They have over two million followers online, and their last five books Mob Kitchen, Mob Kitchen: Vegetarian, Comfort Mob, Speedy Mob and Fresh Mob have sold over 200,000 copies between them.The next part was developing the recipes. When we had landed on the idea, we wanted ensure that every single recipe would feel like a real showstopper. We wanted each dish to feel like a centrepiece. And so the recipe developers got to work. And what they produced is just exceptional. Every recipe is a 10/10. There isn’t one that doesn’t feel completely at home amongst this incredible overall list. The creativity of Sophie Wyburd, Saskia Sidey, Zena Kamgaing, Xiengni Zhou, Jordon Ezra King and Ben Lippett is off the charts. What’s it about: This is their simplest cookbook yet, with six everyday ingredients used to make 115 ultra-tasty and fresh recipes, which will make cooking easier for everyone. With this book Mob aims to show that you can cook something special, remembered forever by your group of friends, with just six simple ingredients – cooking does not need to be time consuming and difficult. The recipes are also just a guide; readers are encouraged to swap out an ingredient if they don’t like it as, ultimately, we know what we like best – Mob wants us to enjoy creating delicious food as much as possible. The emphasis is on simple, easy recipes using affordable ingredients which help you save on money and shopping time – by using only six ingredients, Mob make sure to use every part of it, whether that’s capers and the brine they come in or shallots three ways in one recipe. This cookbook is an evolution of Mob. You spoke, we listened, and we’ve created an entire cookbook of recipes that focus on the good stuff without compromising on flavour. Don’t get us wrong, we’re big fans of indulgence every now and again, but life’s all about balance. And nothing beats the satisfaction of eating something that’s super tasty which just also happens to be good for you. As a team, that’s the sort of food we cook on a day-to-day basis. Because as much as we do love a carbonara, having it every day of the week would probably be overkill.
