The Simpler the Better: Sensational One–Dish Meals - Softcover

"Revsin′s cooking has always been direct, flavorful, and essentially American. Once tasted, her dishes are usually not forgotten." Gourmet If you love making delicious meals but don′t have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen, The Simpler The Better: Sensational One–Dish Meals is the book for you. One–dish cooking doesn′t have to sacrifice taste for convenience, and the proof is in Leslie Revsin′s richly flavored dishes. She helps you put irresistible all–in–one meals on the table in under an hour, and often in fewer than thirty minutes. Ingredients are easy to find and kept to a minimum as well, so you may not have to look any further than your own kitchen pantry to start cooking with style. Revsin makes cooking not only simpler, but better, with dishes that are special enough for entertaining, but easy enough for any night of the week. You will be tempted to try them all, from fresh choices like Tuna, Sun–Dried Tomato, and White Bean Salad or Red Curry Chicken and Rice Soup to hearty classics like Quick Cassoulet. The recipes are packed with valuable hints: simple tips that explain an ingredient or technique, variations, and "dress it up" ideas that add inspired flourishes to already terrific dishes.
