Author Description

A new book from the author of DISCOVERING ASIAN INGREDIENTS. This time Jennifer puts those ingredients to use, with flash-in-the-wok meals that can be served straight from the pan - hot, fast and furiously stir-fried. The idea is that with just a few simple basics in your larder you can be ready to throw together tasty, aromatic dishes in less than 30 minutes, leaving time for busy people to chill out. The recipes are a mix of modern/fusion dishes and simple tradition-inspired recipes.Contents include:Introduction - with a must-have list of ingredients: a basic starter pack of 10 items to keep in the pantry; 5 must-haves to keep in the freezer; and a list of weekly purchases (items that need to be bought fresh)Eating with Family & FriendsEating SoloEating for ComfortCooking for TwoCooking with KidsEating OutdoorsJenny is an Otago graduate in food science and nutrition and has an expert knowledge of Asian ingredients.
