I LOVE this book too. I have three kids and find it a great inspiration when I’m looking for interesting suppers that the kids might just eat.

I have made to sprout soup atleast ten times with my veg box sprouts and love the way it maintains it’s gorgeous green colour and fresh taste as you only cook them for a couple of minutes.

Also love the noodle soup with chicken meatballs (not the right name but you will find it) and the delicious blondies that I have made a few times too.

I made the fluffy lemon pudding the other day for my family. So easy to make and SO tasty! I would definitely recommend using the pie dish rather than the ramekins though, makes for a better texture – the ramekin versions were lovely but in a souflee kind of way rather than a sponge.

I’m famous! ;-)

I really would recommend this book to any of my friends who have mastered fairly basic cooking but want to move onto something a bit more special but not too complicated.

As an omnivore, I probably find it more useful than you would, and the meat recipes are delicious…

This sounds like a great book – I can’t get it just yet though as I also have a tome of a book to get through from Christmas – “Forgotten Skills of Cooking” by none other then Darina Allen – Rachel’s mother-in-law!
