The vital components of a Sunday lunch are a plentiful supply of
food, beginning with a small appetizer to whet the appetite,
followed usually by a joint of roast meat, various side dishes
including some kind of potato, a rich, tasty gravy, and - just when
everyone believes they've had enough - a sweet and toothsome
pudding served with custard! This book exactly follows those
expectations, with a chapter on each course. Every recipe comes
with easy-to-follow step-by-step illustrations and a glorious
picture of the finished dish, for confident cooking every time,
whatever your experience.
Katie Workman is a gifted cook, a best friend in the kitchen, and a
brilliant problem solver. Now Katie turns her attention to the
biggest problem that every family cook faces: how to make everyone
at the table happy without turning into a short-order cook.
Expanding on one of the most popular features of the first
cookbook, her ingenious "Fork in the Road" recipe solution, which
makes it so easy to turn one dish into two or more, Katie shows you
how Asian Spareribs can start mild and sweet for less adventurous
eaters - and then, in no time, become a zesty second version for
spice lovers. She shakes up the usual chicken for dinner with
Chicken Tikka Masala-ish - and feeds vegetarians, too, by offering
a fork where cauliflower is used in place of the chicken.
Fettuccine with Shrimp and Asparagus is a blueprint for seven other
easy mix-and-match pasta dinner combinations. Crostini for
breakfast - truly an aha! idea - can go sweet or savoury, pleasing
both types of morning eaters. Have all the ingredients on hand?
Make the insanely delicious Chocolate Carrot Cake. Missing
chocolate? Don't run out to the store - the basic Carrot Cake is
just as satisfying.
