GREAT LITTLE BOOK (2/2 people found this helpful)
This was the first cookbook I ever bought and I have to say I was impressed. The recipes were simple and delicious and there was a great range from 5 minute snacks to more complicated dishes. My only critisism is that it's a little amateur. The pictures look a bit off-putting and sometimes the recipes are sligtly out of order. My advice would be don't be put off by the pictures - everything turns out delicious - and make sure you read each recipe through first and decide the order for yourself. But other than that, I would definately recommend this book. This book is perfect for any student (and most other cooking beginners too) and doesn't presume you know anything. It begins with telling you how to boil an egg. While some people will find that amusing, for some of us it was valuble information! A superb book which I whole-heartedly recommend.
Dreadful (0/4 people found this helpful)
This book is so visually dreadful it prompted me to write my first review.
The book looks as if it has been produced on a Word package on a PC - very familiar, unprofessional looking fonts and basic formatting.
When I bought the book I loved the idea that it contained photographs of the dishes. However the images look like those from an oh-so-dodgy kebab house menu. The photographs look unprofessional and I would hazard a bet that they were taken by the author herself in her kitchen on various coloured tableclothes and plates.
I'm not sure if I have missed the whole point of the book, as the layout and images are so dire, I haven't been inspired to try any of the recipes, so I can't comment on that aspect.
So not only do I not use the book for cooking, but the lurid green colour and try hard 'nosh 4 students' title makes it look pants on a shelf too. Try the Hamlym 'Vegetarian Cookbook for Students' instead.
Fantastic! (8/8 people found this helpful)
I would definitely recommend this book for anyone going to uni in September, I have just graduated and still turn to it loads both for ideas and directions in the kitchen! The recipes are seriously tasty and I find it so good to have a picture of each one because then I know what it is supposed to turn out like...Also, the recipes are easily adaptable for different numbers of people eating.
Every Veggie Student should have one!!!! (11/11 people found this helpful)
The brilliant photos in this book really do make it a winner. If I am going to cook with confidence I really do need to see how it should turn out before I start. My favourites are the Nutty Veg Crumble and Vegetable Lasagna. The Smoothies are great too and so easy to make - brilliant on hot summer days (we wish!) and when there are plently of good fresh fruit around.
Even if you're not a veggie this book is great :) (10/10 people found this helpful)
This book has so many tasty vegetarian dishes to cook! The instructions are simple to follow....the sweet and spicy pilau is great!! Also some great smoothies and soups, very healthy!!
