Food with Friends: Over 200 easy-to-follow recipes for stress-free entertaining
£3.20
The secret to stress-free entertaining is good planning. If you can do as much as possible in advance, you can spend time with your guests rather than in the kitchen. Food With Friends is packed with great menus for casual lunches, dinner parties and more formal get-togethers. From a spring Sunday lunch to a smart dinner for eight, it is full of delicious recipes, as well as lots of advice on shopping lists and details of what to prepare the week/day before and even between courses. Accessible recipes with an interesting twist are what one expects from top TV chef Gary Rhodes, and this handy book, on a winning subject, should have a place on every cook’s bookshelf.

A member of the public had submitted his apple crumble cake on the TV show ‘Cooking the Books’ and it looked delicious, just like the photograph. I then ordered this book after seeing the show and I must say it doesn’t dissapoint. I love the way he has a ‘to do’ list before each batch of dinner party recipes, extremely useful – oh and the crumble cake is yummy.

GOOD FUN WITH RHODES.

I bought this as a present for my mother, after she had tasted some of the recipes I had followed. I like Gary’s straightforward approach to good, wholesome food. There are no twiddly, fiddly things, just good looking, delicious meals with fresh produce.
If you entertain, this is a must. There are dinners especially designed for 4 people, 6 people and 6+. I am not the most imaginative person when it comes to deciding what starters go with which mains and so on…. Gary does it all for you and I trust him to get it right.
My most favourite recipe is berry fool, made with fresh blackberries, blueberries and home made custard…can’t wait for Summer!

I personally think it’s one of the best cook books ever. Why, because of it’s structured layout and of course the amazing recipes.
