This cookbook has unique recipes and high quality photos throughout. I checked this out from the library but loved it so much I had to purchase my own copy. What a great price - I highly recommend!

Ainsley Harriott presents recipes that have only 5 main ingredients. You will need salt, pepper and oil; but all the recipes turn into some surprisingly elegant dishes; which are relatively easy and quick to prepare. Some are comfort foods, others a bit more sophisticated. Especially good are the sausage, tomato and butter bean bake and the salmon pie.

Most dishes have pictures of the finished product and ingredients are given in grams and ounces with clearly labeled steps.
Included are: starters and light meals, pasta and grains, vegetarian dishes, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, side dishes, puddings (desserts) and baking.
This would be a good cookbook for both experienced and beginning cooks who would like some simple dishes to prepare, but ones that are not so ordinary.

I got this book from the library and haven't returned it yet. Every time I plan to take it back, I see another recipe I want to make. I've made three so far. They are very good. The book is beautifully put together. Many of the recipes are accompanied by photos, which is very helpful. I plan on buying this book really soon!
