The Great Aussie Bloke's Cookbook

by Kim Terakes

The Great Aussie Bloke's Cookbook

Everything a man needs to know about cooking

With over 120 tried-and-true recipes, this is a book for every man at every stage of this life: the 20-year-old who's just left home; the family man whose wife is busy running a small nation; the divorcee whose spare cash is going in maintenance; or the sports fiend wanting to feed his mates while watching a Significant Sporting Events on the telling.

The author takes us on a whirlwind tour around the kitchen. We start with the basics - survival food for home-leavers, comfort food for hangovers, quick and tasty numbers for school nights - before moving on to the sort of sophisticated offerings (think souffles and beef fillet) that will impress Aunty Mavis as much as they will the gorgeous girl from Accounts who amazingly agreed to a date. Other useful tips include how to use a knife  without ending up in Emergency, the rules of matching food with wines (there are none) and reasons to avoid tablecloths.

Soft cover. 211 pages.  (First Edition 2008). 245mm X 232mm. ISBN 9780670072484. RRP $35.00.

The Great Aussie Barbie Cookbook 

Recipes for outdoor cooking 

 The Great Aussie Barbie Cookbook is a must for anyone who has ever prodded a sausage over a flame and dreamed of something more. It covers all the basics of cooking on the barbie, and is full of ideas for delicious dishes to suit any occasion – a family gathering, a special celebration or just a regular school-night meal.

Using the best fresh produce available, the recipes are uncomplicated and unfussy, and   work every time. There are new takes on some old favourites, from the classic filet mignon to upmarket surf 'n' turf, as well as a respectful nod to recent arrivals on the barbie scene, such as Thai beef salad and grilled tuna. And it's not just the main courses that get attention. Kim Terakes, a hopeless foodie by any definition, shows you how to frame the perfect steak with tasty starters, healthy salads and absolutely irresistible desserts.
