The Impoverished Gastronome
By David Chater
Fourth Estate London - 1996
This is a sort of 'anthology' cookbook - the author contacted a number of cooks and invited them to contribute tasty recipes which would feed a group for under £10 (when the book was written in 1996). Most of the recipes are European but some Asian. Lots of delicious dessert recipes too. They are all written clearly and easy to follow. This is one of the most well-used cookbooks I own.
