Comfort MOB: Food That Makes You Feel Good

by Ben Lebus, MOB Kitchen (Primary Contributor)

It's the return of Mob Kitchen! This time celebrating all things crispy, squidgy, cheesy, spicy, warming, sticky, nourishing... all the flavors, textures and feel of comfort pulled together in one book, 100 recipes.

MOB Comfort is a celebration of hearty dishes from around the world that warm, soothe and fill us. Spending time in the kitchen recreating comfort is a way to indulge in dishes from the past and find new flavor and texture combinations that appeal to our senses.

Featuring old-school bangers with a Mob Kitchen twist such as Chicken and Chorizo Enchilladas or Beef Brisket Lasagne, and modern dishes like Sriracha Crispy Tofu or Coca Cola Chicken Wings, MOB Comfort encourages you to indulge every palate and craving in a fun, affordable and achievable way. Though if you're in a hurry but need a quick dose of comfort, recipes like the Grilled Halloumi and Peach Burger with Chipotle Mayo or Ben's Dad's Puttanesca will hit the spot in no time. For an extra dose of comfort, follow Mob's recipes for making your own pasta, focaccia and gnocchi to take your meal to the next level. Mob have also cooked up some cosy dessert recipes to finish - try Miso Sticky Toffee Pudding or extra-oozy Chocolate Jaffa Pool.

MOB COMFORT is a nod to homeliness and cozy nights spent cooking with friends and family, recapturing the feeling of better, safer times with food that loves you back.

Yummy! I've tried the Spicy Chicken Katsu, the Vodka Rigatoni, and the Ultimate Brownies.

The Vodka Rigatoni I've made a few more times already as it's so easy and delicious.
The Ultimate Brownies were good, but very gooey and sickly - so great in small doses for a treat (/heart attack)
The Chicken Katsu was ok, I wasn't so keen on the sauce, but will definitely look at using panko again. Though the amount of washing up that was left in my kitchen afterwards...

Overall, I can't wait to start making more recipes from the book - I've been really impressed so far! The recipes do vary in complexity and time to prepare, and I have found the odd confusing instruction, but the end results have been good. I'd recommend to anyone who likes either cooking or comfort food.

*I received a complimentary copy of the book from TandemCollective and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Very well described recipes and easy to follow. I have seen her videos on tiktok and didn’t realise she wrote the book. Good inspiration to make dinners.

The butternut squash risotto is a delicious, easy to make, staple in my repertoire. Fantastic cook book.
