This is an excellent collection of recipes, suitable for a multitude of occasions and satisfying a diversity of tastes. The common denominator is the rapidity and ease of preparation and cooking. Chop this, fry that, add a touch of this and this, and voila! All in twenty minutes! Every time I cook with this book I feel like a cheat. How come it's always nice (and appreciated) and yet so damn easy? Ingredients include vegetables, cheese, cream (and more), alcoholic cooking adjuncts including wine (red/white), vin Santi, Massala, Vermouth, a variety of meats, so no shortage of something for everyone. His ideas are formulated from a wide (and very early) education as a chef from his childhood/young adulthood in Naples and considerable experience from a young age. He does come across as a bit of a "Jack the lad" but don't be put off by his exuberance. This is a great addition to a recipe collection!Read full review

I watch Gino on his television show, and wanted some of his recipes to try them out myself. I'm really pleased with his book and share it with my family. Great recipes from an amazing chef. Very quick delivery too.

His other books have better recipes but this one is fine if you only have 20 mins to cook a meal in. I rather take the time to cook a meal and get better results but hey in twenty mins you still get a pretty okay dish

The recipes in this book are easy and tasty but as an extra bonus are easy to adapt to vegetarian or vegan.
