I always refer to this book whenever I'm cooking for a crowd that includes a vegetarian. The dishes are so varied and delicious that I'm sure I could cook exclusively from this book for a year and never get a complaint from the family. (And they're not vegetarian!) You just don't miss meat when the flavours are so good. If you like getting compliments about your cooking, use this book. In fact, I've never had a failure with any Charmaine Solomon recipe! (I have all her books.)

Charmaine has packed in a wide range of recipes, menus and some of the staples to give you plenty of variety in a vegetarian (or non-vegetarian) kitchen. Her recipes are easy to follow and unfussy, with familiar flavours to the Australian (or international) cook with 'western' and 'eastern' influenced dishes. They are mostly well-balanced naturally vegetarian dishes, with a wide range of ingredients, rather than meat-based recipes with tofu subbed in.

Every page I found something I'm keen to cook and my list is growing. So far I've made the eggplant tart and the pecan loaf, both of which have been foolproof successes.

I would recommend this book particularly for those interested in cooking for vegetarians, or incorporating some vegetarian meals into your week.

This is truly an exceptional vegetarian cookbook by an Australian author, full of new unconventional recipes that will knock your socks off.

I purchased and paid for this item. I recieved e-mail notification that payment had been recieved and another notification that book had been posted, all good up to here.

I then recieved e-mail notification that seller had withdrawn on the sale and a refund had been actioned.

The refund came through O.K. but unsure as to why seller withdrew on the sale? I did everything correctly. End of the day it was just a waste of my time.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
