“I always like to think of my cooking as being Cordon Bleu made easy. I have cut out all the long processes, yet I do not need to rely on packets and convenience foods. I always like to use fresh season ingredients, as I think this is the best and healthiest way in which to feed my family and friends at home.
Cooking has changed throughout the years. Quick-frying or stir-frying are relatively new techniques, and sauces are lighter now – more than anything because of new ingredients like low-fat crème fraîche and fromage frais. These, plus the new yoghurts, have added so much to the flavours of foods and to the general excitement of eating. However, do not worry; before I even put pen to paper on this book, I went round all the big shops in London and major supermarkets near and far just to see what was available, and where. To me there is no point in writing a book if the ingredients I use are only available from rarefied sources. Everything I mention and cook with here should be readily available in your local good shops or supermarkets.”

Format:Paperback
Each recipe in this book is a delight. The dishes are always delicious and the freeze/re-heat, make in advance sections at the end of each recipe make every busy cook's life so much easier. Every cook should take a leaf out of Mary Berry and add these helpful guides at the end of their recipes. Try the game casserole it is absolutely delicious and EVERYONE always asks me for the recipe of the double chocolate torte. Such a refreshing change from Delia!
Format:Paperback
This is an excellent recipe book, with stunning but easy meals to make. Unfortunately it is out of print but Amazon managed to get me a copy to give to my 24 year old niece for Christmas.
