Customer Reviews

In the Mood for great food? Buy this book!
The layout for this book is what inspired me to buy it, the recipes split into sections such as things to cook when you are feeling lazy, things to cook when you want to be healthy etc. I have only owned this book for a month & have already made 6 or 7 of the dishes, every single one of them was a winner. Particular favourites being the chianti baked meatballs & slow roast honey & ginger duck. Dishes thast look & taste amazing but so simple to make, this book is suitable for a novice right up to an expert. I have already bought this book as a gift for 2 of my friends & others can expect it too!

The best cookbook ever!
I love In the Mood for Food. I have tried many of the recipes and all of them have been delicious and turned exactly how they should. The Naughty section had me drooling and it wasnt long before i was tempted to make something, and the lazy section is full of easy to whip up meals. My favourite recipes from here are the ice creams, rogan josh, coconut satay broth, wholemeal pancakes with sultanas and bananas, and the fish pie. Recipes are easy to follow and the ingredients are easy to find. I would reccomend this to anyone, whether a novice or a pro, as you cant go wrong. Please write another one jo!

I can't think of anyone who doesn't need this book in their life.
I bought this book only two weeks ago, initially because I liked the design and finish when I picked it up in the bookshop. I'd been looking for something to revive my interest in the kitchen after the excess of Christmas. The recipes are really clearly laid out and I love the way they're organized into different states of mind. The author really encourages you to try everything and it's a little like having a friend in the kitchen showing you how to make that great tasting, impressive dish they always seem to whip up when you pop round and you've always wanted to know how to make.
It's motivated me to get my kitchen utensils back out and stop relying upon Leon for my meals. My mum's definitely receiving a copy for mother's day too.
