Once you get past the missing apostrophe in the title of this book, it has a lot going for it. It covers a lot, is beautifully laid out, with plenty of photos letting you know what you're making, and the recipes (or, at least the one's I've tried) work beautifully. This book helped me make my first unsupervised roast chicken (which was delicious and moist), and opened my eyes to the oven-baked risotto. I'll never stand for hours over a stove stirring a risotto again!

Very doable, the recipes are simple enough to do on a random weeknight (and with my limited skills) but still interesting. I got this book from the library but will keep an eye out for it in second hand stores & book fairs, it would be a nice addition to my cookbook collection.

BEST cookbook I have ever come across! Every recipe I have done from this book has turned out supurb!!! My favourite is the chocolate self saucing pudding.

My go-to cookbook for simple, tasty (and somewhat healthy) meals. The recipes are quite simple with maximum punch!
