Detoxing this January doesn’t have to mean boring, tasteless meals.  Saba: The Cookbook is full of delicious recipes created by executive chef Taweesak Trakoolwattana to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Each dish is packed with ingredients that are kind to both your heart and the waistline.

Recipes in the cookbook feature many of the Thai superfoods including broccoli, a miracle food filled with vitamins, calcium and fibre; asparagus to maintain a healthy heart and kidneys; and kale which contains more nutritional value per calorie count than any other food.

All proceeds from sales of this book will go to The Bone Marrow Transplant Unit in Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Crumlin and to The Thai Red Cross Society. Published by SABA, it is available from all good bookshops, Saba restaurant, Clarendon Street and Saba To Go, Rathmines, priced €30.
