Real Food - Fast
by Mary Berry
224 pages, 120 recipes, hardcover
We all love to eat
well and enjoy the freshest, lightest ingredients,
but who wants to spend hours on complicated recipes?
Mary Berry - who tests every dish until it is foolproof
- uses clever ideas and smart shortcuts to put your
favourite flavours on the tables in the shortest
time. Why make pastry, pit olives or labour over
onion chutney when first-class products are available.
Concentrate instead on fresh vegetables, top-quality
fish and meat and the little extras - a parcel of
young shoots or some chocolate flakes - that give
the finished dish a lift. Mary's easy-to-follow recipes
and tips give you mouthwatering meals that don't
take hours. |

Secrets from a Country Kitchen
by Lucy Young
Hardcover, 192 pages.
In her Foreword to this book, Mary Berry describes Lucy as her
'right arm' as well as an 'exceptional' cook. Over the years Lucy
has worked with Mary she has picked up hundreds of tips, shortcuts
and ideas. Further, as someone who has taught at Mary's very popular
workshops, Lucy knows only too well the sort of help, inspiration
and guidance people really need. Now she reveals what she has
learnt in this delightful collection of mouthwatering recipes,
tried, tested and written with the busy young professional in
mind. Using the best and simplest of ingredients, country cooking
with a contemporary note is the theme. From grilled Colcannon
fishcakes, with creamy potato and stir-fried cabbage, to perfectly
cooked asparagus with parmesan shavings, Parma ham and black pepper,
rack of English lamb with mint and sun-blushed tomato sauce, and
plum and almond puffs, all the recipes can be cooked conventionally
or in an AGA.
With country roots, but an eye firmly on cost and time, Lucy Young
will inspire a new generation of cooks. |
