INTRODUCTION
Quick. Easy. Simple.
For a busy working parent with mouths to feed, these
words are music to the ears. For a newlywed who aims for
domestic bliss or someone who is just learning how to cook, these
words off er countless possibilities. For a Filipino working abroad
or someone who is keen on sampling Filipino cuisine, these words
promise good memories.
Whereas my books before were composed of dishes born
out of old, personal stories, Fuss-free Filipino Food will provide
inspiration for making new ones.
I hope that this book will drive you to don that apron,
get busy in the kitchen and enjoy home-grown fl avours in the
quickest, easiest and simplest way.
Happy cooking!
