In this richly illustrated guide to French comfort food, acclaimed chef and cookbook author Stéphane Reynaud introduces us to his favorite foods to make at home. Rustic and approachable, the recipes require just one pan or pot, can be prepared in just 10 minutes, and then are left in the oven to bake. From the classics, such as navarin, boeuf bourguignon, and roasted chicken, to more inventive takes on French cuisine—including a wide selection of vegetarian dishes—this cookbook features more than 150 recipes for appetizers, main courses, and desserts. One Knife, One Pot, One Dish allows readers to serve up all of the romance of a classic French bistro, without spending hours in the kitchen.
Good dishes, but nothing that can't be found online. Picked this up at the Dollar Tree with my wife expecting (like the title suggests) super simple meals. Don't expect to make these meals with just a knife and a pot, they are a bit more complex but still good for culinary beginners.
A vast majority of the meals require very few kitchen tools that aren't found in most kitchens; Dutch oven and food processor will probably be on a newbie's shipping list and will get you through most of the recipes.
