Book description
The Aga is much more than an oven: it's an icon. It's a statement.
It's a way of life. Aga cookers have never been more popular, and the
queen of Aga cookery is undoubtably Amy Willcock. Here is her
definitive Aga Bible, with 300 classic, timeless recipes and
bags of advice and tips for Aga owners.
Here are all the essential recipes that every Aga owner needs to
know - from how to cook a full English breakfast on an Aga, making
soups, cooking fish and roasting meats, through to baking pies, cakes
and breads. The delicious family food includes Beef stroganoff, Steak,
mushroom and horseradish pudding, and Bacon and egg pie, and there are
stunning dinner-party recipes such as Rillettes of duck with toasted
brioche, Chicken in Marsala with oranges and shallots and Parmigiano,
thyme and rosemary risotto. Amy also tempts the tastebuds with a
delectable range of desserts and cakes, including Raspberry souffles,
Chocolate pecan tart and Lemon meringue cake. And there are 30 new and
exclusive recipes, such as Moules marinieres, Crab and coconut soup
and Apple and onion tart. All the recipes feature conventional cooking
instructions, so even non-Aga owners can enjoy Amy's tasty dishes.

Homes and Gardens
and

, holds regular entertaining, cookery and Aga workshops around the UK,
has two young children, a husband, various animals and is the author of

and lots of lovely cooking!
