The spiralizer is the newest tool in healthy eating –

creating tasty low-carb, low-calorie noodles, ribbons and

‘rice' from everyday fruits and vegetables, all with the

feel-full factor of real pasta. There's never been an easier

way to eat your five a day, and more. If you are trying to

diet, the spiralizer will be a revelation – a standard

portion of spaghetti bolognese contains around 270

calories, compared to just 50 calories for a massive

bowlful of courgetti! The many tempting recipes include

soups, salads, all kinds of pasta, rosti, risotto, ‘pizza',

curries, stir-fries, frittata, tempura, tarts and even

desserts, cakes, breads, crackers and muffins.

• The most comprehensive and practical book on the

newest kitchen appliance, with a guide to the different

techniques for spiralizing vegetables and fruits, and a

fantastic collection of new recipes to try.
