About the Book
A new trade paper edition of television chef and author Barber's classic book featuring more than 100 simple yet gourmet recipes to enjoy while out on the water.Book Synopsis
James Barber--who was Canada's most famous television chef and author of more than fourteen bestselling cookbooks--wrote One-Pot Wonders for people who are wet and cold and want dinner in a hurry.
Over the years, Barber whipped up meals while cruising on seiners, yachts and even a wee Davidson dinghy, so he knew first-hand the challenges of cooking on the ocean in a tiny--or non-existent--galley. One-Pot Wonders makes gourmet cuisine accessible to the average cook, featuring over one hundred simple recipes for delicious soups and salads, hearty breakfasts, delectable desserts and exquisite one-pot main dishes that can be served for lunch or dinner. Each dish is easy and quick to prepare, uses readily available ingredients and only a few essential kitchen tools. There are also tips on how to stock your galley and many suggestions for recipe substitutions and variations to address diminishing supplies--a common occurrence at the end of a long trip.
From Fancy Oyster Stew to Banana Omelette to Chicken Biryani or Asian Almost Risotto, these recipes will buoy your spirits and keep you afloat! So come aboard: let James Barber's passion for good food inspire you to enjoy a fine meal after a long day out on the water.
