| 5 / 5 | Urging all could-be-cooks!
- 31 October 2001 Delia has managed to condense the best of British cooking into this wonderful book that comprises decadent starters to wickedly indulgent puddings, all thouroughly explained and supplemented with pictures. Each recipie presents methods in a simple and precise manner so that recipies are accesible to everyone. Whether you need to bake a cake for tea or are attempting the full on christmas roast; this is the book that will provide the know how, and with out doubt will result in a mouthful of pleasure at the end of it....

| 5 / 5 | A culinary classic
Peter Scott "peter46077" (Norfolk) - 23 October 2007 This is a book for real cooks. It is also a book for people trying to feed a family well on a limited budget, as the title suggests. I brought my children up on it and at times things were very frugal. Nevertheless they ate well in all senses of the word - flavour, quality and balance. There is a wide range of recipes, and all of the ones that I have tried really do work. Don't be misled by the word 'Frugal' in the title. This is a set of superb recipes by any standard. Even my 25 year old son, who is now a chef, remembers the book.... Read Full Review » |
| 5 / 5 | Delia at her best
D. Riches (Faversham, Kent United Kingdom) - 12 June 2007 I can't remember how many copies of this book I have bought - because it's so good I recommend it to friends and end up by giving them my copy. It combines Delia's infallible recipes with budget conscious ingredients and proves that good food doesn't have to be high priced. |
| 5 / 5 | Now this is what Delia is about!
Hannah Gibson "Hanpan" (England) - 19 March 2008 Great Book, I've cooked so many recipes from this book and still revert to it as a foolproof classic. I wish she'd made an up to date version of this to teach people how to cook, instead of how to cheat. |
| 3 / 5 | Update Required !!
A. Dinnes - 8 February 2008 I purchased this book as it carried a 5 star rating and was really disapointed when it arrived, it is tierd and could do with an update. It's in black and white, no colour, and no tempting yummy pictures of the food you are going to cook. Overall, a bit of a disapointment. |
