Great as long as you like cheese... August 24, 2007 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
When I first started flicking through this book, it seemed to me that almost every recipe included cheese; ok, I had started at the beginning with the snacks and starters, so maybe that wasn't so strange (72% of these recipes included cheese), and the next section - Veg and pasta dishes - well you'd expect to be a bit cheesy, though with 66% containing cheese it still seemed a bit much. Anyway, I felt I'd be out of the cheesy woods when I got to the fish dishes, but no... 66% of these also included cheese. Ok, so on to the meat & poultry section. Surely I'd left the cheese behind now. And the first recipe was... Squash with meat and cheese stuffing, followed by Beef and cheese strudel; Beef-stuffed aubergine with (you've guessed it) cheese; potato-topped beef and wine casserole topped with - surely not, no, it can't be - yes, cheese - on a beef and wine casserole - Please! Then there was beef enchiladas (with cheese of course) before I finally found a meat recipe without cheese. In all, 38% of the meat and poultry dishes include cheese, though most usage seems - as with the beef and wine casserole - entirely gratuitous. Finally, of the pastries, bakes and desserts recipes, 1 of the sweet dishes and 2 of the 4 savoury dishes contain cheese. So there you have it; I'd recommend it to anyone trying to wean a teenaged pizza addict onto proper food, but if you already enjoy a varied diet, this book will probably just cheese you off.
Another great book from Annette Yates July 22, 2007 This is a great book with just the right amount of information.
I have 3 books by Annette Yates and find them all very user friendly. There are no pictures yet they are some of my favourite books.
A british book with easy to find ingredients.
Grade A Awful December 24, 2000 45 out of 50 found this review helpful
The Combination Microwave Cook offers a review of the various functions, appropriate cooking utensils and cleaning of your oven, none of which add anything to the booklet provided by the manufacturer. The recipes are old-fashioned and boring and there is no information on how to convert your own recipes. Five versions of rarebit, but no advice on how to bake a potato, taking advantage of the micro-wave for speed and convection for colour and texture. "Your oven probably has an auto-cook function for this," the authors airily write. My advice would be to wait for a second book written by someone else.
Long overdue, but worth the wait. November 7, 2000 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
Although bookshop shelves are often overloaded with cookery books, including many dealing with microwave cookery, a book that deals specifically with combination ovens has been hard to find. This is a good one. Not only does it deal adequately with all combinations, it has managed to include within its pages some new recipies. The one area where I would like to see an improvement in future editions is in the area of menu planning and microwave usage for say a simple three course meal.
