'Amy and Emily have real medical know-how - no forbidden foods or finger-wagging, just smart advice and brilliant Burmese-inspired flavour.' - YOTAM OTTOLENGHI

'A triumph - I have absolutely devoured this book.' **-GEORGINA HAYDEN

A bold, flavour-packed journey into Burmese and Southeast Asian cooking, written by two NHS doctors who know the power of food to transform health. Eating well doesn't mean sacrifice - it means variety, flavour, and pleasure - offering all three in abundance.

Burmese food is built on balance: every meal brings together fresh vegetables, pulses, nuts, fruits, fermented foods and just the right touch of preserved ingredients. The result is dishes bursting with salty, sweet, sour, bitter and umami flavours, layered with crunch, chew and comfort. It's food that excites the senses while naturally supporting gut health and wellbeing.

As practising medics, the authors have seen how diet shapes lives - and lived it themselves. Between long NHS shifts and family demands, they discovered that Burmese-inspired cooking offered the perfect antidote: fast, flexible recipes that restore energy, bring joy, and fit into real-world routines.

From zingy salads to nourishing noodle bowls and soul-warming curries, BALANCE makes healthy eating delicious and accessible. Supermarket-friendly ingredients, simple methods and plenty of adaptability mean these dishes work for every cook and every kitchen.
