It was my mum who first brought this book when it first came out, and as i am not at all he best of cooks, when i had to cook a meal, i asked if i could borrow this book, and believe me, it was a tremendus help, and really saved my bacon.
The book is split into eight chapters; Stocks & Sauces, Soups & Starters, Salads, Pasta Rice & Noodles, Sauteed & Pan Fried, Hot & Spicey, In The Oven, and finally Casseroles. Each chapter gives loads of great recipies which are suitable for any accasion, wether it be a dinner party, a roast dinner, or simply a family meal which you know everyone will love.
Probably the best thing about this book is the simplicity of all the one hundred recipies, which allows some of the world's worst cooks (me being one of them), to create a gormea dish, which will have peoples mouths watering.
All the recipies are set out in a simple, easy to understand way with each step numbered, so that if you are not used to cooking often, then there is no way that you can be confused. Also on the left hand side of each recipe it clearly lists the ingredients, the time it takes to prepare and how many people it serves in total, again, so there can be no confusion.
Overall a very good cooking book, which is definately suitable for people who are maybe not so good at cooking as other people. I can't say wether it would be good for experienced cooks, but its definately worth getting if only as a good quality reference book. Thanks Nick!

This book is great. I never have enough time to take hours over cooking and it has some really yummy wholesome recipes - especially the sauteed stuff. I picked it up in a supermarket a few years back and despite having Ainsley, Jamie and Nigella also on my shelves, this is the one I use by far the most. I love the chicken with spinach & potato (so quick), paprika & red pepper (yummy), butternut squash & bacon...Just great and tasty. We just defrost chicken in the microwave and work from there. Brilliant for home cooking when you're late in from work (as usual) and really hungry.
Great and easy to follow.
I would say that this book is aimed at people who are at about my level.
i.e. Know your way around the kitchen but don't often have time to prepare fancy food and tend to leave it for special occasions. You can cook a few things but are just looking for some new ideas.
If you are an experienced cook and have several cook books and are at a stage where you can put things together yourself, you're happy swapping ingredients, you don't need to follow things step by step - and you have cooked a lot of chicken dishes already, then you might find that this book doesn't offer too much new inspiration for you. After all, take one chicken dish, swap two ingredients and you have a different chicken dish.
If, however, you just want some easy, tasty ideas as a change from your normal established meal then you will definately find something you like in here. Come home from work, want something quite quick to prepare and not too fussy, and enjoy the rest of your evening.
That's not to say the book is all about snacks. It caters for all types and the food would be suitable for any occasion. It's just that the majority of the dishes take less time to prepare than you might think.
Sauces, Salads, Soups, Starters, Snacks, Pan fried meals, Rice, pasta and noodle dishes, Casseroles and oven cooking. Something for everyone.

Didn't think much of this
I love new recipe books. Usually I scan the book first of all, over a leisurely cup of coffee. I make a note of what to try - on average about 6 recipes jump out of the book at... Read more
