Simple and delicious! January 12, 2007 10 out of 24 found this review helpful
Simple but not mediocre recipes. Every single dish I've tried turned out to be delicious. And his tips for sauces to accompany different kind of meat, fish and vegetables at the beginning of each chapter are truly invaluable! There are not much recipes for desserts but anyway there is another quite detailed book specially devoted for our sweet dreams!
Very good December 21, 2006 34 out of 38 found this review helpful
Yes, Gary is jumping on the pared down, simple food band wagon; ("Despite his reputation for intricate and impressive restaurant cooking, Gary Rhodes believes that the best way to cook something is often the most simple" - So if thats the case, why does he normally cook such complicated food then?) However, this really is a good book. Im not a big fan of his others but this book contains lots of attractive pictures of really delicious looking dishes that actually make you want to cook them - and when you do, the result is delicious. As always with Gary, the fish sections are the best. Ive just bought this book for my brother, who is finally (at the age of 24) moving out of the parental home and will have to cook for himself at last!!
Simple Good Food December 27, 2005 43 out of 46 found this review helpful
This book has lots of pictures to inspire you to get started and lots of simple recipes for good honest home cooked food. Nothing too elaborate or fancy. The book is conveniently divided by sections into fish, dessert, eggs and cheese , seafood etc so it is easy to find the recipe you need. At the beginning of each section are ultra simple recipes more suggestions really to turn the raw materials into a finished product with minimum fuss. Everything is very clearly explained so as to leave no room for confusion and the recipes work.
Keeping it Simple - Gary Rhodes October 19, 2005 123 out of 124 found this review helpful
Summary - Great Book, great ideas and realistic recipies. A well presented book.Excellent book for the busy cook who wants something different, even after a busy day at work. It is divided into sections for different things eg meat, poultry, fish, desserts etc. It gives tips on how to get the best from different cuts of meat or fish and what to serve with it - not simply giving you a recipie to follow but ideas on what can go with what. Each of the recipies I have tried have been simple to follow with basic store cupboard items which have turned out just like the pictures. There are recipies to follow but also tips on how to change the recipie to suit you. I was very surprised as Gary Rhodes is known for his complex methods for recipies but not in this case. I would recommend this book to anyone.
