Anita Dickmans Cookery Course is a comprehensive guide to cooking, now in its second edition. Built as a proper course rather than a collection of unrelated recipes, it takes the reader from the first confident steps in the kitchen through to the full repertoire of an experienced home cook.
The Western half of the book covers complete meals, pastries, cakes and desserts, and it also shows how to make chocolate at home. The recipes are arranged so that techniques build on one another, which makes the book a genuine course of study rather than a simple list of dishes.
Alongside the Western repertoire sits a generous selection of Sri Lankan home cooking, the much-loved dishes of the family table, together with the popular preparations of Indian and Moghul cuisine. This breadth makes it a single working reference for many different occasions rather than a book tied to one cuisine.
Written for cooks at every level, from novices to experienced practitioners, it suits the beginner who wants clear guidance as much as the seasoned cook who wants a dependable all-round reference. For anyone building a cookbook shelf, it is a practical and lasting addition.
