Title: Gorgeous Food!
Review: This book has pictures for almost ALL the recipes( in full color)! I think this helps alot. It make you WANT to cook the dishes...and it lets you know if yours looks right. I am a beginning cook and so I found this book a little more difficult than the others. The instructions are VERY short and CLEAR, but they assume prior knowledge. I personally don't know how to make a bechamel sauce yet, or garam masala, or ras el hanout (the recipes for these are not in the book, but you need them to make some of the dishes)...to name a few things...but other than that (and the fact that some of the ingredients aren't so easy to find) the book is great! I like how the author gives variations/substitute ingredients for some of the dishes. They taste good, too (except if you substitue beef for lamb in the stuffed bell peppers, add more spices! or else it's bland...more of my inexperience, I guess...).
