Suddenly Cooking
The ultimate beginner-friendly anyone-can-cook book
About the book
So many people believe they can’t cook. I wrote Suddenly Cooking to prove them wrong. Whether you’re moving out, suddenly single or feeding a family, it walks you through everything: 120 easy recipes – most ready in under 30 minutes, many vegetarian or vegan – plus knife skills, food safety, a pictorial food dictionary and measurements for Australia, the UK and the US.
Paperback, hardcover and ebook. 120 recipes. Second updated edition, Casera Publications, 2026.
