Product Description

Product Description
Starters is a reflection of today's approach to eating. Whether at home or in a restaurant, we are increasingly inclined to eat a selection of starters or dine 'mezze' style over several light dishes, rather than consume the traditional three-course meal. This is a very special collection of adaptable, modern dishes presented in a clear and accessible way. The recipes in the book are conveniently arranged according to the occasion: nibbles and snacks; quick and easy recipes for casual meals; simple and satisfying dishes for family and friends; food for groups to accommodate larger gatherings; and posh food for entertaining to impress. The food is versatile and flexible, so dishes can be easily upsized to become lunches and suppers, or downsized to make visually stunning canapes or party food.

About the Author
In 1999 Shane Osborn took over as the head chef of London's Pied a Terre, having previously worked as sous chef to Tom Aikens. A year later, aged just 29, he became the very first Australian to attain Michelin status. Born and brought up in Perth, Australia, Shane has worked in Europe for the past 10 years, including stints in France and Sweden, before moving to take a position with Gordon Ramsay and Marcus Wareing at the new L'Oranger, where he helped to gain a Michelin star. He later became junior sous chef at The Square, before joining Pled a Terre. Shane Osborn is a unique talent and his sensational food has taken Pled a Terre from strength to strength. In January 2003 the restaurant was awarded a second Michelin star. This is Shane's first cookbook, revealing the secrets of his success.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shane Osborn Starters, 17 Oct 2004
I had a an amazing meal at pied a terre, Mr Osbornes restaurant and bought the book there, in a vain attempt to emulate his gifts . To my surprise and delight i found the book easy to follow and had such tremendous success my family refuse to return to our everyday fayre and i am expected to try at least one more recipe a day , youd think this was really a task but it has actually turned out to be fun and not too difficult. I am thrilled with my new found success and am indebted to Mr Osborns years of training and feel a bit of a cheat but only you and my family know my secret!

5.0 out of 5 stars brought on a whim, 8 Jul 2009
I brought this on a whim , never having seen the book , and knew not a lot about Shane Osborn apart from he's a chef who has an allergy that restricts his menu, but not his skill.
The photographs are stunning ,close up and clear you can see the ingrediants and see how the dishes are put together.
The recipies are broken down and easy to follow , so you can pick one item from a dish and use it for another dish. Already a favourite of mine, in the short time I've owned it Ive already cooked a lot of things from it.
