Over 180 one-pot, slow-pot and clay-pot recipes from around the world, with useful cook's tips, step-by-step techniques and 800 photographs. The book is divided into ten easy-to-use chapters with recipes for every meal occasion and every course. The first three chapters include a mix of one-pot and clay-pot recipes, which include soups, starters, and simple side dishes. The main course chapters are divided into stove-top and oven-cooked. To complete the collection, there s a chapter of wonderful desserts. There is nutritional information on the fat, carbohydrate, salt and calorie count for each recipe to help you plan your meals with diet and health in mind. With a useful, informative introduction and simple-to-prepare recipes, this inspirational, yet immensely practical book shows just how easy one-pot and clay-pot cooking can be. Wonderfully flavoured comfort food that's both easy to prepare and easy to serve, these one-pot dishes cover soups, first courses and side dishes; stove-top stews and casseroles, roasts and pot-roasts; rice and pasta dishes; vegetables and vegetarian main courses; and delicious desserts. There is essential information on classic clay pots, from tagines to tians, plus all you need to know about using chicken and potato bricks, garlic bakers and bean pots.
The photos are outstanding, and I often turn to this cookbook when I need inspiration. Contrary to one of the other reviewers, I find these recipes to be consistently sound. I purchased this book several years ago and it continues to be one of the staples of my kitchen.
Great cookbook

This cookbook has the most fantastic pictures of food. I saw it at an art class in Door County and had to have one. I need inspiration to make some different dishes for my family and company.
