You know the great big one? Is it any good?

I like it and i'm no the world's biggest jamie fan. It's well written the recipes are easy to follow and best of all they taste nice.

The "Cook with Jamie" one? I've got it, it's pretty good. Just don't drop it on your foot.

Yes it's a pretty big book is't it!! Might look into getting a copy then, anyone else?

Oh bugger - have you seen the reviews for it? Can see another purchase coming on!!!

Oh yes, I received it for my birthday. We had the old style pork chops last night, with white cabbage and new potatoes, and it was devine.

Also made the brownies at the weekend which disappeared in a matter of minutes. I still think that he uses far too many ingredients though.

McDreamy · 10/07/2007 12:06

Which one have you got?

McDreamy · 10/07/2007 12:07

I have a few Jamies but tbh they're a bit samey-jamie after a while

TDL - bit of fresh air

HappyDaddy · 10/07/2007 13:54

I have the how to cook book. I like it but I'm a complete novice. Lots of the terms just pass me by.

I'm learning off the mrs instead

McDreamy · 10/07/2007 17:07

Just found a copy of the Jamie book inthe library so should be able to get it out of my system without spending a penny

I am a recipe book addict!!!
