A cookery collection in English compiled by Dushanthi Madanayake, a chef familiar to Sri Lankan viewers from the cooking programmes she presents on two television channels. The book gathers a broad range of recipes, with the emphasis throughout on dishes that can be put together at low cost.
That focus on economy is the thread running through the whole book: everyday cooking built around ingredients that are easy to come by and easy to afford, rather than set pieces for special occasions. It is written for the home kitchen and for cooks who want a dependable stock of dishes to work from.
Published by M. D. Gunasena & Co. (Pvt) Ltd, an established Sri Lankan publishing house issuing titles in Sinhala and English, and issued here in a soft cover. Readers outside Sri Lanka who want a practical, home-scale introduction to the kind of cooking shown on Sri Lankan television — and anyone cooking for a household on a budget — will find it a straightforward book to use.
