Gourmet Oysters, Gingery Legs and Thighs, Cloud-9 Rolls, German Apple Cakes; food like this makes cooking for one a joy. And it is the reason why this wonderful little cookbook has now sold over 50,000 copies.
Norah Mannion Wilmot wrote the book while in her eighties, but there is nothing old-fashioned about her approach to food. Cooking for One is full of good-humoured, no-fuss advice; 140 recipes cover every situation from a quiet dinner for one to the unexpected arrival of grandchildren.
The basics are all here, but the recipes are much more than warmed-over versions of commonplace dishes. From Crab Norahburgh to Orange Sour Cream Sauce, from Makeshift Lazy Chicken to Chinese Souffle for one, the book is a delight to use. And it includes enough time and food-saving hints to make a cook out of anyone.
