Sian's Kitchen Caribbean Comfort Cooking

Bring entertainment to the kitchen to please every crowd. Sian's Kitchen is a collection of comforting dishes with Caribbean flair.

BBC Radio 1Xtra broadcaster, DJ, Channel 5/BET presenter and restaurateur Sian Anderson is an exciting new voice in the culinary scene. After founding her immensely popular restaurant Octaves, Sian is now celebrating her Black British identity with Jamaican and St Lucian heritage in a modern Caribbean cookbook.

Among the 80 fresh and flavoursome recipes are interviews with Big Zuu, Julie Adenuga and Big Narstie, as Sian invites them to dinner to discuss their favourite food, plus there is a playlist for every chapter to help you set the mood.

This is an invitation to enjoy a taste of what makes Caribbean culture in the UK so special – gathering around the table to share comforting, vibrant dishes. With chapters including 20-Minute Fixes, Comfort Classics and From the Islands, you’ll find plenty of inspiration with recipes such as: Caribbean Plantain & Black Bean Bowl Ackee Fried Rice, Jamaican Curry Snapper Fish, Oxtail Stew, Curry Chicken and Jerk Lamb with all the extras. And keep the conversation flowing with: Jam Tarts, Sprinkle Cake and Rum Punch.

Sian's Kitchen is a crowd-pleasing, love letter of a cookbook containing everything Sian holds close to her heart: cooking, culture and entertainment. 

Sian Anderson is a media powerhouse and restaurateur. Alongside running Saint Music—her own record label alongside Parlophone Records—Sian also presents The Sian Anderson Show on BBC Radio 1Xtra every Friday and Saturday and a specialist DJ show on Mondays. She is also the presenter of Channel 5/BET’s Big Money Munch, a culinary journey to uncover and celebrate the best Black-owned eateries in the UK. 
 
Sian’s kitchen has always been a space for connection and gathering. Her passion for food is grounded in sharing a meal with others for nourishment and enjoyment. She also took her mate Ed Sheeran’s advice, and opened Octaves, a modern Afro-Caribbean restaurant in London in 2023.
 
Her first self-published cookbook, Sian and Her Son, published in lockdown in 2021.
