These recipes are illustrated with entertaining anecdotes and some beautiful photographs. Whether you are looking for the simplicity of Watermelon with Iced Gin or Tomato and Orange Soup; the exotic like Portuguese Clams or Moroccan Lamb; or the divine, like chocolate truffles, LYNDEY MILAN: THE BEST COLLECTION has what you need. This beautiful book features over 250 pages of sensational illustrated recipes.
