'An extremely handsome, useful and inspiring book. Grounded in tradition and the elemental simplicity of pasta but also truly original and thrilling' Rachel Roddy

'Recipes that are a joy to prepare and to polish off' Yotam Ottolenghi

Padella, the restaurant is famous for notable dishes like Beef Shin Ragu and Pici Cacio e Pepe always on the menu. Now you can bring the plates which cause queues round the block to your own home kitchen. You'll find those Padella classics, and others such as Tagliarini with Crab, Chilli, Lemon & Parsley, and Fettuccine with Nduja, Lemon & Mascarpone, along with many off-menu favourites and home staples like Spaghetti with Garlic, Capers & Black Pepper and mastering techniques and recipes like ravioli, gnocchi, and many more!

Most importantly, this book will teach kitchen cooks the simple steps to take their home cooked pasta to the next level. Buon appetito!

'Even in food-stuffed Borough, Padella stands out. You'll find me in a corner with an expression of glazed lust, hoovering up worms of pici like a deranged cuckoo. And I'll have already put in an order for a second plateful'

Marina O'Loughlin, Guardian

It's a formula that should be everywhere, but is actually rarer than hen's teeth. Grace Dent

'Tim has taken the Italian approach to heart and you see that in all the food he creates. It's nothing short of a joy. . . Every recipe has heart and soul, whether it's a quick everyday pasta or something a bit more decadent and special. . . Not just a beautiful food experience, but also an exciting one'

Jamie Oliver

The infectious charm of this singular cook is found on every page in every dish of pasta served with the accompanying recipes. Bravo Tim, a joy

Since he graduated from the first intake at Jamie Oliver's Fifteen, Tim Siadatan has become synonymous with bold Italian cooking. After working at the iconic St John, he went on to Moro, before opening Trullo with his good friend and business partner Jordan Frieda.

He opened the first Padella with Jordan Frieda in London's Borough Market. It was the culmination of their long held dream to open a pasta bar serving fresh, hand rolled pasta with delicious sauces and fillings inspired by their trips to Italy.

One of the first international food tourist destinations - established in the early days of the Instagram food revolution - its original Borough Market branch has had non-stop queues since day one. Having been taught by the best, Tim and his chefs have maintained the highest quality, as proven by the continued popularity of the restaurants.
