Joanna Farrow opens with an introduction to the delights and simplicity of minimalist cooking and offers expert advice on making the most of really fresh, good-quality ingredients. Cooking with four ingredients saves money and saves time on planning and shopping - but it doesn't mean you need to sacrifice taste, style or nutritional values, and that message is made clear from the outset. The comprehensive recipe collection includes dishes for every occasion imaginable, from early morning juices and pick-me-ups to simple and sophisticated main meals, tasty accompaniments, tempting cakes and luscious desserts. Try elegant yet stress free dishes such as walnut and goat's cheese bruschetta, roasted peppers with halloumi and pine nuts, and chicken escalopes with lemon and Serrano ham. Or indulge in outrageously simple deserts such as white chocolate and brownie torte, caramel and pecan terrine, and summer berries in sabayon sauce. This book is proof that delicious food doesn't have to be complicated and it will allow every cook to have fantastic, fuss-free food at their fingertips.
