5.0 out of 5 stars A culinary classic, 23 Oct 2007
By Peter Scott "peter46077" (Norfolk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a book for real cooks. It is also a book for people trying to feed a family well on a limited budget, as the title suggests. I brought my children up on it and at times things were very frugal. Nevertheless they ate well in all senses of the word - flavour, quality and balance. There is a wide range of recipes, and all of the ones that I have tried really do work. Don't be misled by the word 'Frugal' in the title. This is a set of superb recipes by any standard. Even my 25 year old son, who is now a chef, remembers the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delia at her best, 12 Jun 2007
By D. Riches (Faversham, Kent United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I can't remember how many copies of this book I have bought - because it's so good I recommend it to friends and end up by giving them my copy. It combines Delia's infallible recipes with budget conscious ingredients and proves that good food doesn't have to be high priced.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now this is what Delia is about!, 19 Mar 2008
By Hannah Gibson "Hanpan" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Great Book, I've cooked so many recipes from this book and still revert to it as a foolproof classic. I wish she'd made an up to date version of this to teach people how to cook, instead of how to cheat.
