5.0 out of 5 stars Great recipes with clear instructions 10 Oct 2011
By C. Bannister TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having purchased Lorraine Pascal's previous book Baking Made Easy I was keen to try this one. This is even better thanks to the inclusion of more pictures.

The recipes are inventive and varied, it is lovely to try different flavours without having to give up because the ingredients aren't readily available. The book follows the logical order of:
Starters,Soups,Canapes & Snacks
Breads
Mains
Vegetables & Vegetarian
Deserts
Cakes & Cookies
Sweets, Jams & Other Good Stuff
all with pictures and full fool-proof instructions. I have already tried the Bacon & Mature Chedder Cheese twisties along with the Paprika baked sweet potato wedges with honey-glazed bacon & herby creme fraiche. Both were absolutely delicious and disappeared extremely quickly. There are many recipes that appeal to me so I'm sure this book will be as well used and enjoyed as her previous one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ok, but... 3 Dec 2011
Format:Hardcover
I haven't cooked much from this book yet - the recipes I have done have been fine, BUT I'm not sure whether an editor has been anywhere near this book. One recipe calls for the oven to be preheated, but it's never actually used in the recipe. Another asks you to fry some potatoes and set them aside, but they are never added to the final dish. And those are just the ones I've noticed so far. Perhaps watching the series was essential to understanding the book. I don't doubt the ability of the chef, but the book is not brilliantly put-together, meaning you have to guess a few of the steps. Personally, as a disliker-of-pears, I find there are far too many recipes which contain pears.

Generally I love amost of the recipes I have tried in Lorraine's book. It's great to have been inspired by many recipes and her natural enthusiasm (sometimes I have been inspired to the point of obsession!)
With Christmas coming, I've been impressed with a few turn outs that an pass off as special presents, presented in jars etc- the marshmallow fudge (foolproof) is a must!!
However, why I feel I cannot honour it 5/5, the book has frustrated me from time to time with some of the vague instructions- one example comes to mind, "bake until smell cooked," which isn't exactly useful, alongside an approx cooking time.
Hopefully my feedback will help perfect Lorraine's future books, which I still look forward to buying!
