Introduction -- Comfort food -- Quick fixes -- Slow & low -- From far-flung shores -- Cooking for children.

"Award-winning food writer Tom Parker Bowles, author of The year of eating dangerously : a global adventure in search of culinary extremes, is one of the world's most enthusiastic eaters. He's as over the moon for simple food--a perfectly melting bacon, egg and cheese sandwich, or a rich tomato soup--as he is for the exotic, the fiery hot, and the elegant. Like many everyday gourmands, he never wastes a meal. The dinners he puts together for his young family at home are as carefully thought-out and executed as anything he makes for company. His easy culinary style and winning writing will delight fans of his fellow Englishman Simon Hopkinson's Roast Chicken and Other Stories. The majority of dishes here are European in genesis, as comfort food is particularly well suited to temperate climes; a later chapter deals with food from far-off lands, too. There€™s a good sprinkling of British food. The 140 recipes in Let's Eat are divided into extremely useful chapters, such as "Comfort Food", "Quick Fixes," and "Slow & Low" and include: scrambled eggs roast lamb his Mum's heavenly roast chicken Asian noodle soup meatballs sticky toffee pudding Rounded out with a weekday cook's shortcuts and basics, such as how to make stock and how to transform leftovers into entirely new meals, Let's Eat is one of the best curl-up-and-read-it-tonight cookbooks of the season.
