Book Description
From Publishers Weekly Roden presents a sixth edition of the Foolproof series, which includes books from Madhur Jaffrey and others, most of whom are primarily popular in the U.K. Roden (The Book of Jewish Food; A New Book of Middle Eastern Food),
begins this slim volume with a list of ingredients found in "dishes from one end of the seas to the other," a characteristic that has to do with similar climates and a shared history with of Roman, Greek, Arab, Ottoman and Spanish influences. There are
recipes (with beautiful photos of the dishes) for starters, such as Lentils and Rice with Caramelized Onions, as well as Roasted Peppers and Aubergines with Yoghurt. Main dishes include Seared Tuna with Tomato and Lemon Dressing, and Tagine of Meatballs
in Tomato Sauce with Eggs. While the book list ingredients in both metric and imperial measurements, it also includes a conversion chart. This volume is perfect for home cooks wanting just a taste of Middle Eastern cooking, but those with a deep interest
in the cuisine will be left wishing for more, and will do well to reach for one of Roden's earlier books. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.
