Tana Ramsay - Home Made
'Behind every great man is an equally talented woman.' Nothing beats the taste and comfort of real home made food. Her recipes are a perfect combination of traditional flavours and modern twists, and are divided into 12 ingredient-led sections for ease of reference, including Chicken, Lamb, Pizzas and Chocolate. Beautifully illustrated throughout, highlights include succulent lemon chicken stew, crispy roast pork with haricot beans, Pancetta & thyme, lazy bubble & squeak and a seriously chocolatey Chocolate soufflé cake with cherries and mascarpone. This is the perfect cookbook for anybody who wants to cook great food every day.
