  Sunday lunch is synonymous with relaxing and eating with friends and family and this book ensures that the cook has an enjoyable time too. Clarissa gives you classic and imaginative ways to cook all types of meat (and there's a chapter on fish too), broadening your repertoire and inspiring you to try new creations. She also includes all-important sauces, ideas for accompanying vegetable dishes and an invaluable chapter on how to use up your leftovers (if there are any!) so nothing goes to waste. And Johnny provides essential information on carving so that a beautiful roast isn't turned into a hacked-up travesty. Basic Stuffed Roast Chicken, Beef Wellington and Pheasant with Figs are just a few of the tasty dishes that will have you cooking up a storm every Sunday - or in fact, any time you want to cook something special without too much hassle.
