Review

'Josceline's recipes are personal, imaginative, exquisite; her stories of the extraordinary worlds they evoke and her fascinating life are enchanting' for Orchards in the Oasis --Claudia Roden

'One of this year's most endearing books about food' for Orchards in the Oasis --The Daily Mail

'One of Britain's best-loved cookery writers, Josceline Dimbleby has sold more than 2 million recipe books' --BBC Good Food magazine

“The recipes for chopped-up beef, pork, veal, chicken, turkey and fish are absolutely rock-solid.  Marvellous.” 29th August 2012, Metro

‘Josceline Dimbleby’s Marvellous Meals with Mince was so popular it was reprinted eight times between 1982-89.  Freshly revamped, re-written and added to for this age of austerity, this bestselling recipe book is back and better than ever.  From hearty pies, crunchy croquettes and delicate mousses, Josceline shows us how to whip up meals with mince, in very fine style.’ October 2012, Country & Town House

5.0 out of 5 stars Every recipe is delicious! 5 Oct 2012
By Mrs Curzon Tussaud
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Back in the 70s and 80s, Sainsbury's produced an excellent series of small paperback cookbooks intended to be sold from beside the tills. One of my treasures is a shelf of these little gems in the kitchen, and indeed I now see that I have three copies of one of these titles; Marvellous meals with mince. No doubt I lent copies out, forgot who had them, and decided to replace; at 75p a pop it didn't exactly break the bank.

Josceline's book, A Taste of Dreams, was the book which really got me going in the kitchen. She introduced me to the concept of rose water, of using spices like cumin and coriander to zhoozh up weekday dishes like cottage pie. She spent her childhood in the Middle East, and these flavours were as standard in her cookery palate as salt and pepper are in ours. If you watched Nigella earlier in the week, you'll have seen her "meatzza"; a pizza made with a base of minced meat not dough, and the usual cheese and tomato on top. Well, the credit for that should go to Jossy. She had a recipe for quiche which had a tart case made out of well-seasoned minced meat, baked off, and then the vegetable filling cooked inside it.

My copy of the revamped MMWM arrived yesterday, and tonight for supper M and I are going to have the chicken roulade: a large rich single pancake baked in the oven and then wrapped around a filling of minced chicken, and cooked again. No minced chook in M&S today, so I'm taking the filling down a slightly different route with minced pork and lardons instead.

One of the Amazon reviews I've read said that the writer was buying 12 copies as Christmas presents. Please be assured that there'll be 12 very happy people come Christmas Day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thrilled this has been re-issued! 28 Sep 2012
By J. Burton
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
For years, this was my go-to book for feeding my family well and economically. It finally became so battered and stained as to be something of a health hazard, so I binned it and have regretted that ever since. Now I can have a lovely new hardback! Grateful to this week's issue of "The Lady" for mentioning the re-issue.
