5.0 out of 5 stars A great book for foodies that are always in a hurry, 13 Jun 2007
By Tomasz Jarymowicz (Wroclaw, Poland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you're tired after work or constatly pressed for time but you enjoy good food buy Nigel Slater's book. His recipes are simple and wonderful and you hardly need any cooking experience to achieve good results. Even if these recipes take a little more time to prepare than 30 minutes (it's usually closer to 45 minutes) they're still worth trying. Recipes are divided into particular ingredients which makes it all the easier to use this book. Recipes are followed by 10 or more other ideas you can put to practice using a particular ingredient.
What I also find invaluable is the section dedicated to what ingredients you should always keep handy in your cupboard to be able to prepare a simple dish after a hectic day at work.
His wonderful recipes include delicious chicken with oranges and black olives (ready in exactly 30 minutes), pasta with olive oil and fresh thyme (simple, fast and yet wonderful) and new potato saute with walnut oil.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real gem, 2 Feb 2008
By F. Hamilton - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
For the past few years I've found myself cooking the same sorts of dishes, spending a couple of hours in the kitchen, making something that would last a few nights. But they weren't particularly exciting; not the 10th time around, at least. The odd take-away or pre-packed meal got me through the end of the week when I was too tired to cook.

A friend bought me Real Fast Food a month ago. What can I say? This is transforming my cooking. Truly inspirational. Without a doubt the best and most practical cook book I own. I can't recommend it enough.

The book has a great "store cupboard list" of ingredients that will help ensure you are always able to make something that hits the spot - tasty, varied and and quick dishes that never fail to delight. People have called Nigel Slater a genius, and the more I use this book, the more I think they are right. I can understand why other reviewers say that their copies are dog-eared and greasy - it doesn't leave my kitchen bench, either. Add to basket.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous!, 28 Oct 2007
By A. Elvins (West Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am ordering my second copy of this book. The first has simply fallen to bits from years of use. It is quite simply the very best cookery book around. For me it is a constant source of inspiration, as well as a great read. Enjoy it!
