Book Description

The best student grub book around!

From the Publisher

Quick and easy meals for first-time cooks
Just when you thought food came straight from the kitchen on a plate you discover that it needs cooking first - and there's no-one around to tell you how!

Well, there's no need to starve, nor to blow all your money on expensive takeaways. Simply grab this book and head for the cooker with confidence.

Jan Arkless tells you all the things you need to know - from how to scramble eggs and fry sausages right up to cooking Sunday lunch or a splendid curry! And she knows just what needs explaining too because she did it for her own children when they went off to University.

Love this book, I already had an earlier copy of this book and I still refer to it regularly.
I think the book is so good at teaching you (or reminding you of) the basics that when a friend's son and my nephew went to University this year I just had to get them both a copy so we bought two.
