Some great recipes in Nigella's inimitable style. Just made her extra chocolaty chocolate cookies and they are amazing. A must have if you are a ran and even if you aren't and are just looking for a new cookbook.

I adore this book! I love the way Nigella writes it is welcoming, humble, and witty. When I first got it I read it cover to cover. The recipe for the maple ribs and chicken was requested by my housemates so often I have it memorized. Also her recipe for chocolate pudding will send you into a bliss

Well, I suppose if I could afford smoked trout and lamb, and had a dishwasher and a housekeeper, I might cook some of these. I don't read a lot of cookbooks, but to me this looked like just another glossy doorstop. I did read every recipe title and I tried to find something to try; the only 'maybe'

Very good food and very good recipes,made wholesome with natural ingredients. Many of the recipes are quite quick to prepare and serve. The recipe photos will have your mouth watering and eager to try the recipe. Well done cookbook.

This has wonderful recipes in it.

Amazingly sugar-loaded. Most of it is fast. Very little is original or interesting.
Read in German translation, which loses Nigella's voice.
