FAST FRESH AND FABULOUS by JANELLE BLOOM

Published by Ebury Press on 3 November 2008

Janelle Bloom is a popular guest on Ready, Steady, Cook as well as hosting her own weekend radio show and her new book Fast Fresh and Fabulous is a great take on easy entertaining, which lets face it, is what we all want when we are having friends over. Janelle's approach is something our family has been following for some time now, by using the freshest of ingredients you are making sure that whatever you cook is not only going to taste great its going to be pretty much processed food free, something that is hugely important to lots of us in these times of never ending experimentation and GM modification with our food.

Aimed at the burgeoning cook rather than the culinary whizz, Triple F scores major points for its nice and easy to follow layout, complete with extra tips from Janelle in the style of scribbles in the margins. Divided into three parts with main meals followed by desserts and then some essential tips and basic recipes, Fab really comes into its own with the sweet section, everything from berry doughnuts (very yummy) to Janelle favourite Mud Cake recipe and her Nan's much loved Cherry Cream Cheese Strudel. The final section offers up tips on making your own basil pesto and getting the perfect mash.

Definitely recommended, whether you be a working mum or just starting out Janelle will guide you along the way.
