I don't actually care about the recipes because reading his books is just like sitting in front of a big fire in the corner of his kitchen, with a glass of wine, whilst he potters shelling peas to the strains of Radio 4's afternoon play. Mmm. Sian, you might like his Real Fast Food, which beats Jamie's 45 minute "30 minute" recipes into a cocked hat (available next to the gold leaf from a dragon's lair in your local supermarket).

We have the 30 minute book also and it is excellent-although Jamie does annoy me with his 'Mr cabbage' loves 'Mr Pizza' asides. We also have Nigel Slater but his are more like story books and you end up asking where's the recipe? Hate the ones where you are midway through a simple recipe and then it says 'now add 30g of gold leaf from the lair of a dragon'....Run Hong Konghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14384311795376702851noreply@blogger.com
