Oh, what bliss...

Comfort food at its best! After collecting so many cook books that dress the plate like an art exhibit, its so nice to find a cook book that is written by real people for real people! Yes, the food is is at the higher level of "comfort" food, but its the 1960s come back to life... bubble n squeak, rabbit, pease pudding and the like are all there to take you back gloriously to those far forgotten days. The recipes are written so that they are easy to follow and its just like having your Mum at your side giving you advice; no fancy spring-sided cake tins for the Adult Chocolate cake, you just give the bottom of the tin a good "thump". The book is amusing, well written interspersed with Jennifer & Clarissas personal memories (which are worth the price of the book alone!) and they did it all with an Royal Enfield (isnt that where the Queen keeps her chickens?) Sad that Jennifer is no longer with us, but in the hope that Clarissa soldiers on for many more books... I shall definitely be buying them!

Luxury made easy

With fish pies, slow cooked lamb and scotch eggs on the menu,who could resist ! As newcomer to these wonderful ladies and their concoctions, I was very happy to discover that it was very easy to put the food together. Most of the recipies are accompanied by a little tale of their origin that are interesting and amusing, and give a you a warmth for the meal you are about to prepare. The ladies have put such a love for food onto paper and it shines through. The food is sophisticated, beautifully balanced and everyone can find at least five recipies that will become firm favorites for all time.

delicious

After having seen these two on tv I couldnt resist buying the book. And I wasnt disappointed. The recipes are not all that complicated, the resulting meals are a revelation and the comments of the two ladies are always good for a laugh. Seeing that their view on food is sideways on the nowadays accepted way of cooking and pointing in the direction of enjoyment you cant go wrong! Saskia
