Chelsea Winter has done it again. Her new cookbook Nourish is already flying off shelves and it’s no wonder. It is full of the kind of food we all want to eat right now. Warm, satisfying, flavour-packed meals made with love and just the right amount of ease.
After the runaway success of Tasty, the number one bestselling book in New Zealand in 2024, Chelsea could have taken a well-earned break. Instead, she went back to her kitchen, poured her heart into the stove and created something even more personal. Nourish is a return and a renewal. A return to hearty, well-loved classics. A return to meat, eggs, dairy and fish. A joyful return to what made Chelsea’s food a household favourite, now reimagined with balance and a deeper intention to truly nourish.
Inside Nourish, you will find meals that feel both nostalgic and fresh. Aromatic chicken curry, slow-roasted lamb shoulder, tender beef hotpot and yes, a brand-new take on the iconic chicken pie that started it all. Every recipe has Chelsea’s signature touch: mouthwatering flavour, reliable results, simple steps, clever tips and flexible swaps. With gluten-free and dairy-free options clearly marked, it is easy to cater for a variety of dietary needs without ever compromising on taste.
There are practical dinners for weeknights, sensational sweets for celebrations, and even a new chapter on food-based home remedies. This is not just a cookbook. It is a trusted kitchen companion, guiding home cooks with honesty and ease while making sure the end result always tastes as good as it looks.
Chelsea has a rare gift, the ability to turn everyday meals into something special while helping home cooks feel confident and relaxed in their own kitchens. That is why she is New Zealand’s top-selling cookbook author, with eight titles to her name and a community of more than half a million highly engaged followers online. She has built a world that includes kitchenware, partnerships with beloved brands, and live events, all anchored by her warmth and her sense of humour.
Still, at her core, Chelsea remains the same. Warm, funny, real. Just as likely to share a kitchen flop as a five-star win. That honesty is why her fans trust her, and why brands love working with her. Now based in Taranaki with her two sons and the sea as her backdrop, Chelsea is continuing to grow her world in a way that feels authentic.
Nourish is proof that she is only just getting started. It is a book that uplifts, sustains and inspires, and it is everything we need right now.
