About the Author

Neil Perry is one of Australia's leading and most influential chefs. He has managed several of Sydney's top restaurants, including the award-winning Rockpool. This landmark establishment celebrated its fifteenth anniversary in 2004, and since its inception has been consistently highly recommended by food critics around the world. Among Rockpool's many achievements is winning the Australian Gourmet Traveller Restaurant of the Year Award for the third time in 2004 -- the only restaurant in the Award's history to have achieved this distinction. This enviable reputation is due to Neil's passion for great food and tireless commitment to excellence -- qualities which have brought him to the forefront of modern Australian cooking.

In recent years Neil has established a dynamic consultancy business that provides training and menu development for Qantas Airways and a fresh food product line for Australia's Woolworths. He does regular television work as well and is the author of two previous books. In 2004 his famed XO restaurant reopened in Sydney, with its distinctive take on modern Asian food.

Neil Perry lives in Sydney with his wife Samantha, their new baby Macy and his elder daughter Josephine.

Changed my cooking

Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2009

Verified Purchase

This book is teaching me how to cook beautiful, simple western food. I cook the bacon pasta dish every week without fail. It is that good. Neil has also taught me a technique for making pureed vegetable soups that means I don't have to look at a recipe when I want to cook with vegetables that are left over at the end of the week or look good at the market (zucchini, peas, chicken and leek, potato and leek - it doesn't matter) - last night it was sweet potato. Cooking without a set recipe is liberating.

It sounds silly but he has also taught me a technique for cooking omelette - this morning I had a feta, tomato, rosemary and parmesan omlette. Was it in the book? Nope, but he has taught me the technique.

I've got a whole heap of cookbooks. Too many really. But many cookbook writers are amateurs. Neil Perry has spent a lifetime making brilliant food at the highest levels. And yet his genius is not to be pretentious or over complicated when cooking at home or teaching others to do so.

I used to think Perry was a prat with a ponytail. Now he is my western cooking god.

Incompetent production ruins a very good cookbook. Avoid until they include a proper Index without errors and omissions.

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2016

Verified Purchase

I bought this because I found that the print version Index was very incomplete and I thought, no real problem I can supplement the rotten index using search on kindle. You can imagine my annoyance, therefore, when I downloaded my new book only to find that the Index on the Kindle version was not only more incomplete than in the print version but was an incompetent mix of errors and extra omissions. For example,. under E there was a listing for fried something. You could guess Egg should have been the Index entry, but using an Index in a book you have paid for should not be a matter of guessing what the publisher means. The same sloppiness occurs with several other letters of the alphabet. In the end I deleted the book and asked for a refund. This sort of incompetence is only too common in Kindle books. Some publishers think they can get away with charging a market price for inferior goods that they haven't even had the professionalism to sub-edit. Although this is a very good cookbook, I can't recommend either version to anybody. A cookbook without a comprehensive Index is completely useless to anyone who buys it to cook from rather than just to look at the pictures.

Since first writing the above review, I have discovered that the Kindle version I had is not the same version as the hardcopy I had (2016), even though it has the same artwork. There are several recipes missing in the KIndle viersion and many of the entries are incomplete, missing variations, accompaniments etc..I assume the missing stuff is in the extra ebooks you are invited to buy! Sorting out this mess is not my problem, but I would even more emphatically not recommend the Kindle version to anyone until Murdoch Books gets its act together.

Timeless gift book for all levels of cooks

Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2011

Verified Purchase

I have bought this cookbook twice(as a result of giving it to friends who read it), and will have to buy another copy again for myself. It is the perfect gift for a foodie - the lay out, the content, and the results. After reading each recipe, I feel like I've had a private cooking lesson from the author! Every time I leaf through it, I always learn something and gain inspiration. This book will help cooks get a "feel" for cooking and adjust recipes with confidence. Excellent bridal shower gift and birthday gift - for any level of cook.

Great Italian recipes

Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2007

Verified Purchase

At 440 pages, this is a huge cookbook of authentic Italian cooking. Unlike other ethnic cookbooks, this one is a "learning" cookbook that takes you by the hand and teaches how to do each task which may be as simple as boiling an egg, much like the great cookbooks of yore...Betty Crocker or Julia Child for instance. However, the recipes are not everyday country fare but what I would consider to be grand Italian...the kind of dishes you would expect to find in a very good, up-scale Italian restaurant. Need I say more? Recipes are great and cookbooks dealing with authentic Italian cuisine don't come our way often.

Fantastic!

Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2011

Verified Purchase

I have been wanting this book for a long time. When it first came out in this country (Australia) it was very expensive. When I found it on Amazon in the bargain store for 20.00au I was thrilled.
Sure the dust cover was marked but the book was in very good condition. I would not hesitate to buy from the marked down section again, but I have also got many books at good prices from the main section.
Well done Amazon....many thanks.

My ultimate favorite cooking book

Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2017

Verified Purchase

My ultimate favorite cooking book. In addition to the beautiful, diverse range of recipes; this book has amazing descriptions on how to prepare meat and vegetables, which knives to use, mixing ingredients, etc. Great if you want to learn how to extend your cooking skills and learn how to make a wider range of different types of food.

Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2015

Verified Purchase

The book is alright and I bought it for my girlfriend.

However, when we took a closer look, we realized that the book that was delivered to us was shoddily printed. I suspect that the book that I got was not an original. It also lacked the copyright page that you usually find in most books. If you look at the back cover of the book where the ISBN barcode is printed, you'll notice that the resolution of the print is not very high, almost as if the cover was printed from a scanned picture.
