Wild Sides: An A-Z of Exceptional, Essential Vegetable

Most of us buy vegetables out of a sense of duty, or as a minor accompaniment to meat and fish. Wild Sides is the cookbook to change that. Its simple but tantalising recipes transform the humble vegetable side dish into a gourmet experience. You can prepare Vicki Wild's simple but wonderful recipes as stand-alone dishes or as sides for the main meal. o Over 100 recipes for veggie-based dishes, from Honey Roasted Carrots and Parsnips with Garlic to Cauliflower and Gruyere Gratin. o Straightforward tips on cooking methods, kitchen equipment, sauces, seasonal charts (ie when to buy what). o Caters for every popular vegetable - and tells you how to jazz up some not-so-popular ones.
