Mum's favourite recipes - Bill Tikos

Remember the trifle your mother used to make for her dinner parties? Or the roast beef and Yorkshire 'pud' for family lunch on Sundays? There was comforting chicken soup when you were sick, and perhaps a bananacake to help mend a broken heart. Most of us have treasured memories of our mum in the kitchen, cooking our favourite dish. The recipe might have been passed down from her mum or simply torn out of a magazine, but she had somehow made it her own.

In this book 80 leading chefs, celebrities and ordinary Australians share with us culinary secrets from their greatest source of inspiration - Mum. These are much-loved, much-cooked recipes from all kinds of households and from every corner of the globe. Contributors include Jamie Oliver, Stephanie Alexander, Maggie Beer, Serge Dansereau, Jill Dupleix, David Herbert, Christine Manfield, + many more. And their mums, of course.
