Australia's favourite kitchen mistress presents a collection of 100 recipes (plus countless riffs) that you'll want to cook, on a weekly basis, with tips and tricks scribbled in the margins, and explanations where need be, so that by the time you're finished (never!) you'll have tripped over technique to a point where if feels second nature.Starting with chapter one, entitled Really Outstanding Things Simply Thrown Together (hello All-seasons Avo Half and Wedge Caesar), through to Never Going Back (Fava Bean Felafel, Hubbababaganoush) and Making the Most of It (delicious ideas with leftovers, saggy bits and preserves). Then it's Loosen the Shoulders Time (Onion and Tomato Pie) and building up to Showstoppers and Centrepieces (yes you can make Salt and Pepper Creme Caramel).All recipes are naturally veg-forward, with countless suggestions for making adaptations, spotlights on favourite produce and kitchen gadgets galore.You are a better cook than you know. Here's the book that builds your confidence. Start your flying hours now.
