Work detailsThe 30-minute Cook: The Best of the World's Quick Cooking by Nigel Slater None. My copy has sticky pages and stains as this is one of the few I actually use. Who wants to cook for more than 30 mins really? A writer who gives a recipe for a chip butty gets my vote. ( )5 stars, because the recipies are imaginative, quick, delicious. And it wasour best wedding present! This is a book that I actually use, as opposed to just thinking it could be interesting and then just trying one or two recipes. It is inspiring and gives new ideas that don't take ages to make. There are influences from lots of countries and no overemphasis on authenticity. But the main thing: the recipes that I've tried all taste good. Not for real beginners, though. Get some idea of the basics first. no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0140231358, Paperback)Let Nigel Slater give new meaning to the phrase "fast food" with The 30-Minute Cook. In previous books such as Real Fast Food and Real Fast Desserts, he blazed a trail for quick preparation of European cuisine; in this third volume, he tackles the rest of the world, still in 30 minutes or less. Consider dining tonight on Indian Spiced Lentils, Camembert Baked in Pastry, or Persian Lamb Kebabs--and still have time to read the kids a bedtime story or work on that novel you've been meaning to finish. Slater's basic premise is that everybody has to eat, and there's no reason why we can't all eat well in the same amount of time it would take to heat up a TV dinner or order a pizza. So if you've got a hankering for Moroccan Chicken or Grilled Prawns in Yogurt and Lime, let The 30-Minute Cook help you get dinner on the table with plenty of time to spare.(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 14 Feb 2013 13:27:01 -0500) Over 250 quick and easy recipes are included here from India, Italy, China, Turkey, Thailand and South America.
