Chris Collins holding stack of Comfy cookbook in kitchen

Where can I order the book in the UK?

Alongside Amazon, you can order from Waterstones, Blackwell’s and WHSmith.

Is Comfy available outside of the UK?

YES! If you are in the US please keep in mind the book is written in Metric and will contain some UK phrases/words you might not be used to (minced beef instead of ground beef, coriander instead of cilantro etc). However, the measurements will easily be converted if you have scales and measuring cups with ml. Having said that I have created a free conversion table with all the conversions and US ingredients that you can print/download if you’d like! If you’re on mobile just click the share/save button then ‘Save To Files’ (here is a black and white version if you’d prefer to not print colour).

This is my ‘Bangers & Mash Pie’ from the ‘Comfort Classics’ chapter. How could I not include this fan favourite in the book?!

Make your comfort food dreams come true with ‘Comfy’

I’ve poured everything I’ve got into this book and I’m genuinely SO excited to share it with you! It’s built on the back of years of blogging, recipe developing & home cooking and I can safely say it’s my best work to date!!

Comfy is packed with feel-good flavour-loaded dinners that you’ll want to make over and over again. It’s full of the comfiest, most delicious dinners I’ve ever created. Think the ultimate Fish & Chips, Creamy Peppercorn Steak Pasta and Loaded Baked Potato Soup!

This is my ‘Rich & Tender Pork Ragu’ from the ‘Low, Slow & Saucy’ chapter. It’s one of my favourite shots from the book!

Let me answer some questions!

I’ll try and preempt some questions, but if you have any more let me know in the comments below!

How many of the recipes are new?

The majority are completely brand new and written for the cookbook! In fact around 80% of them are completely new, with some of my most popular blog recipes that I had to include.

What kind of recipes are in the book?

Dinners!! All approachable, super-delicious, fail-proof, comfy and full of flavour.

Here’s a few sneak peek recipes:

  • Burrata Caprese Pasta
  • Cottage Pie Baked Potatoes
  • Easy Bloomer Bread Pizza
  • Brown Butter Gnocchi with Sage and Butternut Squash
  • Soul Soothing Chicken Orzo Soup
  • Roasted Sweet Potato Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing
  • Harissa Halloumi Skewers
  • Katsu Curry

This is my ‘Broccoli & Cauliflower Cheese Soup’ from the ‘Dinner-worthy Soups & Salads’ chapter. And yes, naturally I’ve served it in a loaf of bread!

Are these year-round recipes or just for ‘comfy’ season?

These are 100% recipes you can make all year-round. There’s of course lots of recipes that are perfect to tuck into on a cold Winter’s evening (soups, pies, hearty pastas and warming casseroles). But there’s heaps of Spring/Summery recipes too (think burgers, mega salads, tacos, quick dinners, minimal prep dinners, slow-cooker/no-oven dinners).

Are the recipes easy to make?

The skill level is no different for the recipes I post on here and across social media. As with my blog, I made sure that every single recipe (bar 1 or 2) has a notes section and every recipe is as detailed as possible. My publishers were pulling their hair out squeezing in each recipe, but you know how thorough I like to be . Even the bigger recipes are placed across a double page to ensure there’s no missing crucial info. So, in short, I’ve made the recipes as fail-proof as possible!

Do let me know if you have any other questions in the comments!

Also, if you missed any announcements I made across social media I’ll pop the videos below.

As I said, if you’ve got any more questions please do let me know in the comments. But for now, I just want to say the biggest thank you. For the comments, the reviews, the likes – everything. I’m so confident that you’ll love this book and I seriously can’t wait for it to make its way to your kitchen. I know it’ll bring you as much joy as it continues to bring me.

    Is there any chance you will have a US-friendly (i.e., non-metric) version in the future?

    1. Chris Collins says:

      Hey Brooke! There’s no plans at the moment. I know it’s not ideal but hoping the conversions chart should help. C.

  2. Susan says:

    Hello Chris,
    Great your book is do available.
    My question is, is it available in Belfast.. I will be there in a week.
    thank you..

    1. Chris Collins says:

      Hi Susan! I’m not sure if/which bookshops sell it, but it’ll certainly be on Amazon (I know that’s probably not helpful but it’s the best I’ve got!) C.

  3. Marge Garrod says:

    I’m not sure what is needed to use a non-US cookbook. Anything beyond a scale and measuring cups that have mls?

    1. Chris Collins says:

      Hey Marge! If you’re happy to convert from Metric to Imperial you’ll be good to go – scales and measuring cups with mls should do the trick. There are some UK terms (minced beef instead of ground beef, coriander instead of cilantro) but these should hopefully be few and far between. C.

  4. Brooke says:

    Any hints as to when a US version will be available?

    1. Chris Collins says:

      Hi Brooke! The book is available but unfortunately not as a US version. It was something I was hoping for but the publishers have chosen to stick with a metric version. C.

  5. Kim Tuffery says:

    Just made the skinless pork sausages. The flavour is fantastic. You could make meatballs with this mixture and have it in a tomato sauce with pasta

    1. Chris Collins says:

      So pleased to hear they went down well, Kim! ๐Ÿ™‚ C.

  6. Alyssa says:

    Any update on if this will be available in the US? Love your recipes and can’t wait to buy the book!

    1. Chris Collins says:

      I think it’ll likely be October! Still looking for official date though ๐Ÿ™‚ C.

  7. Anouska says:

    Me & my neighbour have just received your book “Comfy” today from amazon, all we can say is Wow, it’s amazing! We are swapping page numbers as to which ones we are gonna cook 1st!

    1. Chris Collins says:

      Ah I’m so pleased to hear! I hope you love the recipes ๐Ÿ™‚ C.

  8. Ryan De-Vall says:

    Hi Chris, first of all your book is amazing and enjoying working my way through it front to back! I know that it can vary depending on the specific ingredients used, but do you have anywhere that lists the rough calories per meal? Iโ€™ve just started tracking and thought Iโ€™d ask before I go work it out for every recipe – sorry if itโ€™s somewhere and I havenโ€™t noticed!

    1. Chris Collins says:

      Hey Ryan! Great to hear you’re enjoying the book. We actually decided not to put calories in the book! Having said that, ~20% of the recipes are popular recipes from the blog, which are all calorie counted. Most of the blog recipes are at the beginning of each chapter. Cheers! C.

  9. Helen says:

    Hey Chris!
    With the book being available in Australia, does that mean us Kiwis can order it too ?
    Cheers, Helen

  10. Robbie says:

    I see that I can order your book from Amazon US, have the units of measurement been converted?
    Hope so.

    Thank you

    1. Chris Collins says:

      Hey Robbie! I haven’t had confirmation from my publisher that it’s out in the US yet, so it’ll likely be being sold through a 3rd party. As such, it will be UK measurements. Will keep you updated if I manage to get a US version out or not C.
