Cookery - good food for friends recipes and ideas - Good Food Magazine and BBC Books

When having friends over for a meal, people usually like to try new recipes and, of course, want something that's original and up-to-the-minute, but more importantly need to be sure that these recipes are practical – i.e. that they have been carefully tested and so are guaranteed to work, and that as much as possible they can do all the work ahead, so they'll be able to spend more time with their guests. All the 100 plus recipes in Good Food for Friends have been devised and tested to deliver in exactly these ways.

The book is divided into chapters on Soups, Starters, Lunches & Light Meals, Fish & Seafood Main Courses, Poultry & Game Main Courses, Meat Main Courses, Vegetables & Salads and Desserts. Each chapter also contains at least one masterclass, examining in detail an important and representative recipe, such as the Parmesan Soufflés with Almond and Anchovy Sauce in Lunches & Light Meals, complete with useful step-by-step photographic sequences. There are also regular features on important areas and techniques, like the buying and choosing of fish, garnishing, roasting and casseroling, and making important basics like perfect mashed potato and custard.

All the recipes have helpful symbols indicating preparation time, whether or not the dish can be frozen, its degree of difficulty and if it is possible to scale it up for larger groups. Throughout there are also lots of hints and tips on shortcuts and ingredients, as well as guidance on appropriate equipment, where necessary, and generic wine notes for each dish.

The book finishes with a section providing advice on planning dinner parties, complete with the golden rules of menu planning and some suggested menus to suit various situations built on the recipes in the book. So with Good Food for Friends readers will be able to make sure that they enjoy the event - and the food - as much as their friends are sure to do.

All recipes are taken from BBC Good Food Magazine. (Source: BBC books 11 December 2005 - Hardback edition)
