Something for the Weekend
Jamie Oliver was a relative unknown when he became a Penguin author in 1999. Six TV series and worldwide sales of more than eight million copies of his five books later, he is one of the UK's favourite chefs and an international celebrity who has changed the face of the cookbook. In Something for the Weekend, Jamie pulls together a selection of crowd-pleasers to liven up anybody's Sunday dinner, whether you're partial to traditional fare or you're looking for something a bit more adventurous.

I am now SO HUNGRY. And eager to start tossing things about in the kitchen and drizzling olive oil over all and sundry. I've never read a Jamie Oliver book, and have seen only very little of his television presentations. The varied, interesting and above all easy (sounding) recipes in this book is dressed in a light style which makes everything sound delicious and good for the soul. Definitely well done.
Jamie Oliver se gemaklike styl laat hierdie gevarieerde en maklike resepte klink na voedsel vir die siel, gees en liggaam. Ek kry sommer lus om olyfolie oor allerhande dinge te sprinkel.

An extra star for an excellent title and for the cover artwork by Marion Deuchars. Kind of a let-down, since it's more of a promotional item for Penguin's seventieth birthday and just like fifty pages of weekend-related recipes Jamie Oliver thought up on the train ride to the publishers' offices. Still, you can't beat that cover.

Reads really easily, and makes cooking seem lighthearted, fun, and very manageable. Want to try out recipes from here.
