Any suggestions for a good cookery book for my DD, 23, who is new to cooking (i.e. making things from scratch rather than whatever is on offer at the supermarket).

Something modern but that doesn't use fancy ingredients? But has good simple every day recipes?

She is on a limited budget as regards buying in fancy ingredients and has rather limited store cupboard ingredients at her house, and would probably appreciate a book that teaches some of the basics such as bolognese sauce, roast potatoes, how to roast a chicken etc and quick simple healthy things that she can knock together after work.

I might put her together a store cupboard basics kit to go with the book.

Thanks in advance

The name is slightly inappropriate but I would really recommend ? my daddy cooks' by Nick coffer. Fantastic recipes but really straightforward.
