This recipe book, in my opinion, is simply wonderful with its wide range of cuisines and courses to choose from, and easy to follow instructions. From pies to pasta dishes, from curries to coconut macaroons, there is something for everybody.
My personal favourite is the spaghetti bolognese which is never watery on the plate - an old classic that is simply delicious.

Students?
As a student, I have found several of the recipes - macaroni and cheese, spaghetti bolognese and quick chicken curry, to name but a few - are tasty meals that do not leave you out of pocket. They are also easy to prepare and will teach you basic cooking skills. There are even desserts included that make a nice change from cartons of ice-cream or chocolate biscuits - such desserts include: coconut macaroons, custard tart and lemon curd roll to name a few.

Final Thoughts?
I would wholly recommend this recipe book to anybody looking for old favourites and new things to try and even to people looking to enhance their cooking skills.
The only qualm I have with the book is that there are little notes on the sides of some recipes - giving little tips or different things to try - which are sometimes difficult to read because of the font used.
