About this listen

 'I want to eat everything in this book every single day for the rest of my life' - James Acaster

'Sweet and funny ... as well as genuinely insightful about cooking' - Hadley Freeman, The Sunday Times

'As touching as it is delicious' - The Evening Standard

From Spaced, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz to Paul and Truth Seekers, Nick Frost has lit up our screens for decades with his perfectly observed, just-the-right-side-of-absurd sketches and films. He's also a keen, self-taught cook and this book is his passionate love letter to food, kitchens and the people in them.

Whether it's learning to cook his mother's beef stroganoff, making 'Pies in a Bowl' for Simon Pegg, preparing a Greek salad for an entire film crew or serving up porridge for his kids, this is Nick's celebration of family and friendship, process and technique, and the solace that cooking brings. It's the pleasure of escaping into a world of hisses, blips and the thunks of a knife on a board and sharing lasting memories with those you love over a comforting plate of food.

A Slice of Fried Gold is a delicious mixture of hearty recipes, stories and digressions from one of Britain's most loved actors and writers.©2023 Nick Frost (P)2023 Bonnier Books UK Culinary Entertainment & Celebrities Professionals & Academics Celebrity Funny

Beautifully read by Nick and his descriptions of his recipes are so brilliant you don't realise it's a cookbook... made me very hungry too!

Don't read/listen when hungry!

loved this book. at times it felt like the inside of my mind! the perfect balance of food, recipes and a life story.

Laughed, cried and felt inspired

Started a little slow, initially I thought it was just going to be a memoir with food. It rapidly ascended into lunacy and surrealism - I have to get myself a few grammes of Cluck. I am even going to try some of his recipes. I rarely write reviews, but had to for this book. Brilliant

Brilliantly surreal and lunatic

I find Nick Frost really funny so the concept of his cookbook/memoir being an audiobook seemed intriguing. His confidence in the listener's culinary skills developing is very encouraging. Some of the absurd segues go on a bit too long, but I'd still consider getting his book to read the recipes.

Poignant, odd, life-affirming honesty

Hilarious, poignant and revealing. Superbly read and not just a recipe book! ~ Highly recommended!

Yeah Boy!

What the hell did I just listen to?
