The 30-Minute Russian Cookbook: 22 Quick and Practical Recipes

This is a collection of recipes from Russian cuisine that are quick to prepare, simple, and without any hard-to-find ingredients. The recipes include salads, chicken, meat, and fish entrees, as well as entrees that may be prepared as vegetarian. Slow cooker versions of the recipes are added where appropriate. The book is tailored for a novice cook, so that every step is described in detail, and no step is more complicated than peeling a potato. For most of the recipes, a basic version of the dish is described, which has the smallest number of ingredients and is the easiest to prepare. For those who want to be a bit more adventurous, options are given to make the dish more interesting by adding more ingredients. Every recipe in this book can be either a full meal or a major part of one, which prevents you from wasting time on small appetizers. Photos of the finished dish are included with each recipe. For those recipes that are slightly more complicated, photos of each step will guide you through the preparation.
