Eat - The Little Book of Fast Food
bunyip from Melbourne, VIC
Nigel Slater is one of the great cookery writers of our time. He is a man devoted to the enjoyment of food and his enthusiasm is infectious and inspirational. Just reading him whets the appetite, so skilled is his prose.
This is book is reminiscent of his first, Real Fast Food which was published in 1992. Many of the recipes are wonderfully flexible and there are lots of suggestions for variations. The idea is to rustle up something delicious from whatever you have to hand, and he positively encourages the use of convenience foods like tinned chickpeas, frozen (all-butter) puff pastry and (good quality) butcher's sausages.
The man is my kind of cook.
