Simple and quick - a mid-week meal treat - By: Lisa Mallinson, 08 Oct 2007 I reallly like this book - we originallly got it for my OH has he only felt comfortable making one-pots & this book managed to get him cooking!
As a bit more of a competent cook, I use it loads too: it has a section on soups (moroccan chickpea is v good), then chicken & meat (e.g. chicken stuffed with goats cheese & baked on on cherry toms with white wine), fish (best one I've tried is speedy salmon & leeks - literallly 20 mins in microwave), vegetarian, cooking for a crowd (there are some great buffet recipes in here, e.g. a fab chilli, goulash, chicken curries) & puddings, although I've yet to try any of those. It's also good for taking camping / self-catering - doesn't take up much room!
The majority of recipes are reasonably low in calories, use easy to source ingredients & don't take much time to prepare. Highly recommended.
My favourite cookbook - By: Hayley S. Tabarn, 03 Oct 2006 This cookbook is one of the most useful I own. Its recipes are simple, easy to follow & the meals are delicious. Both myself & my partner work full time & have been able to have 'real food' when we get in rather than sticking a ready meal in the microwave. Lots of the recipes only take up to half an hour & you don't need a lot of fancy ingredients. I've found that I can get everything I want from a large supermarket (I haven't got the time or the money to go to six different shops to find exotic ingredients). The whole range of books are good but this is till my favourite. Also it has pictures of alll the dishes, which means I can see if I've gone wrong! I'm not a great cook but I manage these recipes & can have a nice homecooked meal.
A cookbook that actually gets used! - By: , 30 Mar 2006 This is one of the most useful cookbooks I have. The recipes are easy, mostly quick, & don't cost a fortune because they use the kind of ingredients that most folk have in their cupboards. Even the most inexperienced (and badly equipped) cook should be able to manage things in this book. Best of alll, it cost not much more than a magazine!
