    I agree the recipes take a while but they went down well in my house, having said that I cooked loads of them last week and put on 3lb! Hopefuly there is another explaination for that, anyway, pasties and rice pudding my fave. I turned the lasagne into mousaka by adding allspice to the meat sauce and counting aubergines and olive oil as extra it was ok.

    The risotto is divine. The Cajun spice chicken & the crispy chicken are both lovely. The korma is decent but JUST about falls short of the mark! My favourite had to be between the risotto and the prosciutto wrapped cod on the bed of roasted veg. Delicious. Their wedges are rubbish I have a far nicer recipie for tastier crispier wedges if anyone loves a good wedge!!

    We got the book just after Christmas, have tried loads of recipies out of it!

    Really enjoy the Crumpets with warmed spiced fruit and yogurt breakfast.

    The lamb curry is amazingly good (and I'm from Bradford!!!)

    Minted pea and Feta omelette is a regular fixture on our menus

    Tagine, Meatballs, Paprika chicken, Parma wrapped Cod, Cottage pie, Jambalaya, Salmon in ginger sauce, ALL GOOD!

    I've tried the Chicken Korma and Lamb, Spinach &Potato curry and they were really nice - in fact it's korma for dinner tonight!

    Also tried the granola bars, personally they were a bit sweet for me and i really didn't like the texture - but that's just me so don't let it put you off trying them as the fruit and coconut tasted nice in them!

    i'll be trying the skinny muffins at the weekend!

    Hi - I bought this book as my brother had said how good the ones he had tried were. So I have made the Spanish Style Chicke bake and I must say it was really very good.

    So will definitely be trying some of the other recipes.

    I'm another vote for the Spanish style chicken. It's a one pot meal and really tasty.

    Spanish style chicken bake and the homemade burgers are our favourites, I've never used a cookery book as much as this one, its like my bible. I made the chicken korma and froze portions for my daughter to have at uni! :-)
