Serve as a main course or a starter (or even as dessert!).

The fillings are easy to make, can use leftovers,

can be made early and kept in the refrigerator.

Avocado makes a wrap even more special!

The intention of this book is to provide recipes that can easily be prepared by a single person with little cooking experience and with not too much time to devote to the kitchen. This is an ‘as is’ recipe book. It is not orchestrated, manipulated or photoshopped. The ‘in progress’ images are simply given as a guide to what to expect, so for a new cook they might provide some assurance that things are going well during the preparation process.

These filling recipes, although designed for a wrap presentation, can be used as main course or side dishes in any other menu. The cooking methods are not complicated or complex and should provide tasty, nutritious meals.

I enjoy cooking so much. It is a bit of a passion for me.

I began in the late 1950s, when I was 6 years old, taught by my mother, while standing on a wooden cauliflower box at the kitchen surface to peel vegetables. I cooked a full Sunday 2 course roast dinner at the age of 7. I have continued cooking ever since.

Leg of lamb, roast potatoes, yorkshire pudding, buttered carrots and green beans. Apple pie and custard.

I remember inviting my girlfriend (I was 10 :-) to dinner and made a salmon souffle followed by chicken and lamb kebabs.

I started to put this book (and others) together as a way of keeping a record of my recipes and cooking successes (and failures).

I hope you enjoy making (and eating) these recipes as much as I have. Enjoy the experience, experiment with alternative ingredients, change accompaniments and garnishes, but above all have fun.

I shall be publishing again very soon. Future books will have Chappati (with lamb curry), Naan (with dhal), Roti (with honey, yoghurt, cream cheese and mango!) and more to be served in the Wrap Style.
