Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Croque monsieur

    • RosieB on May 28, 2016

      This is a nice easy and tasty sandwich made with local ham sliced off the bone and good cheese. A perfect easy dinner when I could not be bothered to cook.

  • Hummus 1

  • Thai corn fritters

  • Cauliflower, chilli and coconut soup

    • debkellie on May 25, 2024

      I was dubious about the combination, but it made a delightfully different soup. Nicely warming for a cold winter's evening!

  • Sweetcorn chowder

    • Lafro on March 26, 2022

      A very tasty soup.

  • Spaghetti with silverbeet, raisins and pine nuts

    • debkellie on December 20, 2021

      A very pleasant, quick, week night pasta... took Monday night taste buds to next level ;-). Would definitely make it again.. (I had no oranges, so instead soaked the raisins in Mandarin Napoleon)..

  • Macaroni cheese

    • debkellie on August 05, 2020

      Of the 3 variations we can highly recommend "Michele's macaroni cheese" (p.181): the description they give it is correct: "Sounds weird: tastes fantastic". Worth trying, even if you don't like Mac 'n' Cheese.

  • Thai green chicken and cashew curry

    • RosieB on February 17, 2016

      This was a nice curry and better for using a really good fresh green curry paste.

  • Tunisian lamb shanks

    • Lafro on March 10, 2026

      Very simple to make. The broth was very thin - but the flavour was all there. Cooked it longer than 2 hours which made it very tender.

  • Tunisian vegetable and chickpea tagine

    • pennyvr on September 12, 2014

      A delicious way to get lots of veggies! I'm not sure about the zucchini - I deviated from the recipe and cut them into 3cm pieces, which took longer than 10min to cook down. Also the flavours didn't really infuse into the pieces of zucchini. I wonder if perhaps they are supposed to remain crunchy? I found this amount of chilli nicely hot while still allowing the other flavours to come through.

  • Hot Thai salmon and lychee salad

    • debkellie on February 11, 2026

      I was using up tinned lychees (opened to make a lovely cocktail) and an EYB search brought up this recipe. Had this as a main course salad for 2. It was exceedingly tasty! Thoroughly recommend!

  • Leek and goat's cheese quiche

    • pennyvr on August 25, 2016

      Made a bit too much filling for my (24cm) tart tin - should probably reduce by 1 egg and similar proportion of cream.

  • Chocolate fudge cake

    • debkellie on August 01, 2015

      Really good. Moist, and great mocha flavour. Took 30 minutes longer than suggested.

  • Sherry-soaked raisin and almond cake

    • debkellie on July 07, 2015

      Today's "cake of the day" : I subbed in cream sherry for sweet (Harvey's Bristol of course): looking forward to sampling the final variant - the batter was delicious!

  • Lemon tea cake (Madeira cake)

    • debkellie on July 04, 2021

      An abundance of lemons on the tree: this was a really easy cake. Taste is beautiful.

Publishers Text

Two former chefs wanted all the food they cook at home in one tome—and here it is, more than 1,000 of their favorite recipes

A comprehensive set of recipes for the everyday, this cookbook covers every meal from breakfasts to weeknight dinners, from slow-cooked braises to lazy Sunday afternoon barbecue ideas and delicious desserts. Each chapter begins with a basic recipe and slowly builds up the skills of the cook. In Soups, basic stock recipes head the order, followed by simple vegetable soups such as Sweet Potato and Ginger Soup, moving to Minestrone, Oxtail Soup, Roasted Vegetable Gazpacho, and ending with Asian dumpling-style soups and accompaniments such as soda bread, focaccia, and naan. Other offerings include French Toast Sandwiches Filled with Chocolate; Sweet Potato, Pancetta, and Pea Risotto; Mediterranean Fish Stew; Pesto Roast Lamb; Fig Jam; and Coffee and Cardamom Mousse. Full of recipes that work and will make their way into every home cook's routine, this book is destined to become a well-worn favorite to be cooked from time and time again.
