I'm a big fan of Rick Stein's cookbooks- from having watched some of his programmes on TV it seems that he writes down recipes that he watches local people make, and that's what goes in the cookbook. Whilst you might therefore have to look a bit further afield to find some of the ingredients, the flavours are authentic, and totally amazing (and he lists stockists, online and high street, at the back of the book)
My husband and I bought this book to take with us on holiday to Spain, where most of the ingredients were readily available. Everything we made was, and has been, absolutely delicious and I would definitely recommend it.
Slightly digressing, but perhaps worth mentioning, is that Rick Stein's Far Eastern Odyssey cookbook is the most amazing cookbook we have ever used- a lot of effort generally to make the spice mixtures and stocks etc. but worth it for the incredible flavours. You will never want to eat takeaway food again!
