About the book: 
‘You are what you eat’ seems like such an obvious statement, so why then is it so hard to eat well and satisfy our cravings in a healthy way? This cookbook is for all those people who are tired of being told to eat more fruit and vegetables and reduce their intake of refined and processed foods, but who are rarely given any recipes or advice on how to put those guidelines into practice in a way that doesn’t compromise on the flavour and enjoyment of our food. It is also for the growing number of people who suffer from intolerances to certain food groups, particularly wheat and dairy.
 
The Guilt-free Gourmet  is not about diet, weight loss or denial; it is simply showing you the various ways you can use alternative ingredients to achieve the same decadent results as the original, but as the strapline indicates, the recipes are without wheat, dairy or cane sugar. Recipes range from simple sharing plates to more exotic dishes such as Thai curry and fiery Korean noodles to Japanese tempura and Moroccan tagines.

About the Author
Jordan is a chef, author and food stylist. Having trained at the Ballymaloe Cookery School in his native Ireland, Jordan was immediately picked up by the Michelin star chef Skye Gyngell, with whom he worked for years at Petersham Nurseries Restaurant in London. He went on to cook for high profile private clients where he gained a following for his naturally healthy, yet indulgent food. This led to the publication of his first book ‘The Guilt Free Gourmet’, and subsequently ‘The Natural Food Kitchen’, which was shortlisted for a Guild of Food Writers Award.
 
Jordan is also the UK’s leading authority on Korean cuisine. He was named the winner of the K-Food Festival, a competition searching for the UK’s best Korean chef and was subsequently awarded an honorary ambassadorship by the Korean Foreign Ministry to promote Korean food in Europe. He learned his craft in Korea from a number of the most respected chefs and food producers in the country. Together with his Korean wife they are the authors of ‘Our Korean Kitchen’, a bible of authentic Korean home cooking, which has just been shortlisted for the André Simon award for best food book 2015.
 
His work has featured in numerous national and international publications including Observer Food monthly, The Guardian COOK magazine, The Times, The Sunday Times, Vogue, Elle, Hello!, Delicious, BBC Good Food, Waitrose Kitchen and Food & Travel.
 
Jordan has contributed to a number of radio and TV shows both in Ireland for RTE and TV3, and in the UK for BBC1’s ‘Food & Drink’, Channel 4’s Jamie (Oliver) & Jimmy’s Friday Night Feast, ‘London Live’, ‘Marriage of Flavours’ for Fox International and most recently Jordan collaborated with Marks & Spencer for their Christmas campaign.
