Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Onion-thyme tart

    • Lindalib on July 06, 2013

      Easy and delicious. I added goat cheese that needed to be used, but it would just as good without it.

  • Carrot-coconut milk soup

    • curtisca on June 24, 2018

      I have yet to make another recipe from this book, but have been making this one religiously for years! It could not be easier (3 ingredients or so?) and is absolutely delicious. For a vegetarian (vegan!) soup it is surprisingly filling and satisfying - I think it is because of the richness of the coconut milk. I always at least double this recipe as it just doesn't make nearly enough otherwise; even so, it disappears way too fast. Every time I make this for company (as a starter or one of a couple of soups) they ask for the recipe. Really popular with kids as well - it's so sweet and addictive! Note: I often use onions instead of shallots and it is still delicious.
