What can I say, This man is fantastic. I don't go for the Percy pepper and Susie salt malarkey, but when it comes to fast, tasty, cheap and convenient meals, this book is a must. Essential.

Ken Hom is inspirational and yet modest offering recipes that take lees time to cook than collecting a takeaway. Fastest meal; 8 minutes!

If it's a coronary you're after, this chap is for you. More cream, butter and fat than you can shake a stick at, but gorgeous food without the stress.

Before he cut his hair and got all serious, the Tate and Lyle man looks at fast food from the cheffy angle. surprisingly easy ingredients too, as opposed to his other books

I had to put this one in just because Mr. Martin believes Indian, Italian Hungarian and greek food is British. You've got to love him.

This book now dominates my life and I've lost over a stone and a half in eight weeks. All this and not a bloody mung bean in sight! An excellent buy.

This makes life easier because it means you don't have to buy all the other books! That could save you hundreds of pounds that you need to spend on all the base ingredients.

He's back for one last outing and this one's a doozy. The section on sauces alone make this book worthwhile. Forget the chippy, I've got Ainsley!
