A great selection of recipes from many regions of asia. Healthy and exciting dishes most pretty simple to follow. Most ingredients are easy to find in your local supermarket however some may require a trip to your local china town. My favourite recipe so far is stir fried rainbow vegetables a kind of chinese taco dish consisting of vegetables and noodles served with lettuce to wrap them up in. Many vegetarian dishes and meaty too. Dish tips and discriptions at the top of each are very helpful. All together a great book however probably not great for new cooks.

Ken Hom demonstrates a keen flair for the diversity of the Orient and Western cooking styles. He mixes ingredients from both cultures well; leading a some interesting variety on 'traditional' dishes.
The book outlay is clean, well illustrated and modern in style. The photography is sparse but sufficently effective, to show some of the more 'amalgamated' dishes. The book also explains the appropriate Oriental essential ingredients needed.
Overall the dishes seem at home for the quick snacks and robust enough for dinner party ocassions.
Format:Paperback
I sent off for the book and received it within a week, in the condition in which it was described. Despite it's age it's a great book with timeless recipes and I'm looking forward to making some of the wonderful meals from it. Thanks ot the seller for their prompt response.
