Good quick recipes and ideas
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I found this to be a good book, while not necessarily presenting anything that out of the ordinary it did provide good solid recipes that can be prepared in short amounts of time. It's not a tremendous amount of recipe, but some of the recipes offer variations. Another good feature of this book is that it provides two pages of additional suggestions and variations at the end of each chapter. As another reviewer mentioned, the book is written for British audiences, this is a bit annoying but fortunately quantities are listed in ounces as well as grams. I haven't had too much trouble finding any ingredients listed.In case you buy it here are some translations/substitutions:aubergines-eggplantcourgettes-zucchinilardons-crumbled pieces of crispy baconfresh coriander-cilantrorocket-arugulaprawns-shrimpdemara sugar-brown sugercaster sugar-superfine sugardouble cream-heavy cream (not quite the same fat content a double cream, though)you can search the web for "ingredient substitution" to find others.
Quick and easy impressive meals

I love to cook but rarely have the time to fix anything really elegant. This book has been a life safer when I've needed to make something special on short notice (ie when the in-laws drop by).I've even used this book to teach my husband how to cook. He's usually terrified of the kitchen, but found this book so easy to use that we now cook together every Friday.
A great Cookbook

I am an amateur chef and have an abundance of cookbooks. This is the one I use the most. Quick, easy, simple and the dishes are superb. I highly recommend it.
