DELIA'S FRUGAL FOOD

Delia Smith - Hachette - $39.99

As Delia Smith says in her introduction, what goes around comes around. Delia's Frugal Food was first published in 1976 and this new edition, which has marvellous new photographs and design standards, has otherwise only had a minimum of tweaking.

With rising food costs and the economic downturn the sense of timing for this new edition is spot on. Also a knew series of Delia's How to Cook is now showing on Food TV this Tuesday at 8.30pm.

Tonight I am making her baked fish with potatoes and anchovies.

Bon appertit!
