Long description

The Domestic Goddess is back and this time it's instant. Nigella and her style of cookery have earned a special place in our lives, symbolising all that is best, most pleasurable, most hands-on and least fussy about good food. But that doesn't mean she wants us to spend hours in the kitchen, slaving over a hot stove. Featuring fabulous fast foods, ingenious short cuts, terrific time-saving ideas, effortless entertaining and simple, scrumptious meals, Nigella Express is her solution to eating well when time is short. Here are mouthwatering recipes, quick to prepare, easy to follow, that you can conjure up after a day in the office or at a busy weekend, for family or unexpected guests. This is food you can make as you hit the kitchen running, with vital tips on how to keep your store cupboard stocked, freezer and fridge stacked. When time is precious, you can't spend hours shopping, so you need to make life easier by being prepared. Not that the recipes are basic - though they are always simple - but it's important to make every ingredient earn its place, minimising effort by maximising taste. And here too is great food that can be prepared quickly but cooked slowly in the oven, leaving you time to have a bath, a drink, talk to friends, or do the children's homework. Minimum stress for maximum enjoyment...Nigella's is a new generation of fast food - never basic, never dull, always do-able, quick and delicious. Featuring the recipes seen on TV in BBC Two's Nigella Express series.

An avid fan of both Nigella Lawson's food philosophy and writing style, I was keen to purchase the book, and even more enthusiastic to try out the recipes. Alas - Nigella Express is disappointing. The cover is enticing, the layout is clean and uncluttered. The food styling is excellent and the book is chock full of Nigella's inimitable wit and candour. The recipes, however, disappoint the palate.Perhaps the best chapter is the Breakfast - the recipe for Pancakes with Blueberry Syrup is excellent and is a winner for busy mums. Other sections of the book deal with quick, healthy lunches and food-on-the-go - both of which will be appreciated by harried time-deprived executives. However, if cooking is not a chore, but a hobby and a form of stress relief you will be left feeling like a sunken souffle. I much prefer the Nigella of the Domestic Goddess and Feast era - who preached domestic perfection through the kneading of bread and painstaking cake decoration. On the whole the book provides some good, tasty recipes but approach with caution if you are a Nigella Lawson fan.

  Stripped down perfection
Reviewed by Unknown from Johannesburg, South Africa on 21 July 2008

I am a Nigella fan and have all her books. Express fills the gap superbly between the long drawn out recipes of her other books and really puts the skates on but does not sacrifice flavour. Her recipe for Salmon in Mirin is exceptional and will defy your tastbuds to ever enjoy a restaurant salmon again. Not all the recipes can be done quickly. Certain recipes have speedy preperation and long cooking, or overnight marinading. Her recipes never fail and I would recommend this book to any level of cook, she lays out the steps with simple to follow guide lines and tips. Really a must have.
