Bedside Manna: More Recipes for Body and Soul by Lionel Blue
Rabbi Blue, master of Comfort Food, includes 80 easy-to-follow recipes in this book, ranging from the plain to the exotic. He does however offer healthier alternative ingredients (which taste just as good) to what might have been cholesterol-laden dishes and he has included more vegetarian recipes. The book is a companion volume to the author's Kitchen Blues. Amongst the recipes included are Iced Avocado Soup, Chilled Consomme Jelly with Mock Caviare, Sister Lucy's Haddock, Mexican Bean Balls, Pasta with Nuts and Mozarella, Honeyed Welsh Lamb, Heirloom Supper with Smoked Sausage, quick snacks, exotic sandwiches and salads, Fennel Fried with Anchovies, Crunchy Creamy Apple Pudding, Brown Bread, Ice-cream, Irish Soda Bread and OOmph Cake.
