Customer Review: The Slippery Slope
I had firmly vowed not to buy anymore cookery books…then succumbed to this. I cooked my way through it in record time, and found the recipes both straightforward and inspirational, just the thing to make cooking a pleasure after a hard day at work! The down side: it has set me off on my cookery book addiction again.
Customer Review: Not everyday cooking
Dont be fooled by this books title - every occasion i dont think. Dont expect to pick up this book to cook an everyday meal. Its all gourmet so great if you have dinner parties but definitely dont bother otherwise. Lovely pictures though.

Customer Review: Vegan recipes to return to
The recipes in this book don’t need loads of esoteric ingredients, and they work. Oh, and they’re delicious - in case people thought vegan food wasn’t supposed to be. The disadvantages are that the recipes look a little unexciting on the page and there are no pictures to tempt you. But that’s better than being all presentation and no substance. The book also includes information on vegan nutition, presented in a straightforward and, perhaps apart from the (short) chapter one, non-proselytising way. I first bought this book on a recommendation of a friend soon after it was first published, and soon after I became vegan (though I later returned to lacto-ovo vegetarian but that had nothing to do with lack of varied food if I was cooking). Nearly 20 years on, and as veganism seems to be getting a bit trendy, I have returned to the recipes to find new ones and rediscover old favourites. The comments she makes are helpful and honest: e.g. ‘Can be frozen but the sponge goes a little dry.’ I too have been trying to find other recipes by Amanda Sweet but a Google search brings up only this one book and then wanders off into irrelevancies.
Customer Review: Sensible affordable very tasty
This book is full of the most wonderful recipes - I can guarantee you'll find many favourites among them and also that you'll never remember you are actually eating vegan. This is the book for all those people who pull long faces and say that vegan food is tasteless and boring and doesn't contain any life sustaining nutrients (yes, we've all met them). I often use the recipes in this book for dinner parties - they are that good. There are even vegan puddings and a section of fabulous vegan sauces that can double up as gravies or to add moisture to pie fillings. Vegan food never tasted so good. Unfortunately the author doesn't seem to have written any more cook books, which is a great shame. If you want one really good vegan cook book - this is the one.
