The recipes in Dining In have one thing in common: they make even the most oven-phobic or restaurant-crazed person want to stay home and cook. Vegetable-forward but with an affinity for a mean steak and a deep regard for fresh fish, these recipes are all about building flavour and saving time. They prove that casual doesn squo;t have to mean boring, simple doesnnsquo;t have to be uninspired, and that more steps or ingredients donwsquo;t always translate to a better plate of food. With Alison Roman, dining in brings you just as much joy as eating out.
