Nanny Ogg's Cookbook

By Terry Pratchett, Stephen Briggs, Paul Kidby, Tina Hannan
Corgi Books - 2001

A piece of fun from Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld. Originated from "Maskerade" which mentions such dishes as "Strawberry Wobbler", "Bananana Soup Surprise" (it's got bananas in it, that's the surprise), and "Maids of Honour". Well they start out Maids of Honour, but they "ends up Tarts". "Chocolate Delight with Special Secret Sauce" should probably only be attempted by the advanced student, with fire extinguishers and buckets of water to hand.
