5 out of 5 stars Classic   May 19, 2008

Bought this recently and a week ago tried one of the recipes- spiced chicken pilau. Just like other Delia recipes that I have tried, this did not disappoint.
Her take on frugal eating and cooking is always timely but alas, her pronouncements on freezing are out of date (see How to Cheat at Cooking for updates on freezing and how technology has made it all possible).



5 out of 5 stars Now this is what Delia is about!   March 19, 2008

Great Book, I've cooked so many recipes from this book and still revert to it as a foolproof classic. I wish she'd made an up to date version of this to teach people how to cook, instead of how to cheat.

I purchased this book as it carried a 5 star rating and was really disapointed when it arrived, it is tierd and could do with an update. It's in black and white, no colour, and no tempting yummy pictures of the food you are going to cook. Overall, a bit of a disapointment.


5 out of 5 stars A culinary classic   October 23, 2007

This is a book for real cooks. It is also a book for people trying to feed a family well on a limited budget, as the title suggests. I brought my children up on it and at times things were very frugal. Nevertheless they ate well in all senses of the word - flavour, quality and balance. There is a wide range of recipes, and all of the ones that I have tried really do work. Don't be misled by the word 'Frugal' in the title. This is a set of superb recipes by any standard. Even my 25 year old son, who is now a chef, remembers the book.

I can't remember how many copies of this book I have bought - because it's so good I recommend it to friends and end up by giving them my copy. It combines Delia's infallible recipes with budget conscious ingredients and proves that good food doesn't have to be high priced.
