Description

Are you the type of person who constantly runs out of imagination trying to feed the family; who freaks out at the thought of inviting anybody to dinner, or who can't get out of the kitchen fast enough? REJOICE! You are a person after my own heart, and this book is for you. Because I created it for me-someone who loves to entertain but has no confidence, and anyway, has better things to do than spend too much time in the kitchen. Over the years, I simplified classic recipes, and devised ways to cheat-on the premise of 'fake-it-until-you-can-make-it'. Most of the recipes are of the 'bung it in the pot and pray' variety. In fact, you don't have to do much praying, because they are foolproof. That means, whatever kind of fool you are, you cannot possibly wreck the dish!Many of the recipes give no precise quantities. This is because they are designed to be adaptable to suit any number of people, and the recipe will work no matter what you do to it.The clocks by the side of each recipe indicate how much preparation or total fiddling time is involved.The dish may take longer to cook, but you don't actually have to do anything to it, other than make sure it doesn't burn!Whether you genuinely hate to cook, or just hate it because you lack confidence or are pressed for time, I know the ideas in this book will help you as much as they helped me.
