I know it's not fiction, but some of us on the 50 books thread fancy talking about cookery books, and fiction gets more traffic.
I've read two this year so far, dipping in and out of them when cooking/eating etc - neither are new but both are really lovely to read:
Madhur Jaffrey 'World Vegetarian' - I haven't made a lot from here, but what I have made has been good and there's lots more I want to try. My biggest problem with it is she says that things serve 4 or whatever, but it's often that they serve that number as part of a combination with other foods/recipes, and she doesn't always make that clear.
Nigella Lawson 'Feast' - The Guinness cake from this is sublime, and the veggie chilli is good, although my Mother of All Veggie Chillis recipe is better! I fancy trying the vodka pasta, but can't stand tinned tomatoes - I might try replacing with fresh.
Anybody cooked anything from either of these?
