5 out of 5 stars Wonderful   February 19, 2008
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I have to say, I was initially suspicious about this book before I owned it because I'm not usually a fan of "low-fat" cook books...however, this is no ordinary low-fat cook book...it's really just regular food that HAPPENS to be lower in fat and the good part is: the recipes are delicious! I've only tried a few so far, but I'm very impressed and there definitely seems lots in there I'd give a go. Most of the recipes are also very quick and easy to prepare - without losing out on flavour! I particularly enjoyed the rump of lamb with roasted tomatoes and rocket...delicious!


5 out of 5 stars An excellent, timely book   September 25, 2007

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the introductory pages of Jill Dupleix's new book. Her descriptions of needing a change of pace in lifestyle and how that reflects in both food and drink struck a chord with me. The book is not a diet book and is not preachy on the subject of nutrition. The recipes are fresh and new with a lightness of touch that is very refreshing - influenced undoubtedly by the Pacific Rim style of fusion cooking that is commonplace in Australia's big cultural centres.

I am very happy that I found this book and will be visiting it regularly for inspiration.

... and nice recipes too. Jill Dupleix has, for a long time now, been one of my favorite cooking writers. This book doesn't disappoint. There are a whole lot of original recipes the majority of which appeal. We're cooking the slow cooked squid for dinner this evening.
