Críticas:

There is so much to love in MiMi Aye's wonderful Mandalay: Recipes & Tales from a Burmese Kitchen but, even before I got on to the recipes, I felt that a book that told me that in Burma people greet each other by asking whether they've eaten yet, belonged in my life... I am so grateful to Mimi Aye for a really loving and hungry-making introduction to a fascinating cuisine. (Nigella Lawson)

Knowing next to nothing about Burmese food, it's a glorious revelation. Autobiography, history and recipes all rolled into one magnificent whole. A brilliant, beguiling book. (Tom Parker Bowles)

Real insight into a cuisine I don't know nearly enough about... and a delicious love letter to Burma. (Marina O'Loughlin)

It's rare to come across a book that opens up an entirely new cuisine to us and Mandalay does exactly that. Burmese recipes that combine the deliverable with the authentic, written with calm authority leavened with personal touches from an engaging personality. Buy and learn. (Tim Hayward Financial Times online)

A readable, personal collection of stories and recipes from a country [MiMi] refers to as 'home'... Enlivened with
family snaps and beautiful food photography, it's a brilliant introduction to Myanmar's food culture.

(Delicious Magazine)

MANDALAY is an utterly charming, enlightening collection of food and stories, written with authority and a clear sense of the author rarely seen in the 'cookbooks by region' shelves of a bookshop. (The Caterer)

Mandalay: Recipes and Tales from a Burmese Kitchen by MiMi Aye offers surprises and inspiration with its accessible recipes. It isn't intimidating but just pushes culinary boundaries down a tasty road to Mandalay. (Mostly Food and Travel Journal)

There is so much to love in MiMi Aye's wonderful Mandalay - Nigella Lawson

A flavour explosion

Influenced by its neighbours and the countries closest to it, Burmese food draws techniques and ingredients from Thailand, India and China but uses flavours of its own to make something subtle, delicious and unique.

The food of Burma is little known, but MiMi seeks to change that within these pages, revealing its secrets and providing context to each recipe with stories from her time in Burma and her family's heritage.

Beginning with a look at the ingredients that make Burmese food unique - as well as suitable alternatives - MiMi goes on to discuss the special techniques and equipment needed before delving into chapters such as fritters, rice and noodles, salads, meat and fish and sweet snacks. Within these pages you'll find 100 incredible recipes, enabling you to create a taste of Burma in your own kitchen.
