Thanks U.K chicks!
 
I just wanted to thank those of you that recommended the Australian Women's Weekly cookbooks to me. I had seen them years ago but couldn't find them again here until recently.

Last week I bought a vegetarian cookbook from the series and it's terrific! I made the vegetable biriyani rice recipe and it was a big hit.

I even recommended the series to someone else on this site.

I may have to hit you all up for some translations for certain ingredients I've never heard of - :lol:

Thanks again for the help! :)

:wave: That would be kykaree I guess? ;) I even found myself on the Australian Women's Weekly site the other day I forget why! :) I don't even cook... I think I was just being nosey. :p

Mauvaisroux, you'll have to remember that a courgette is just a zucchini and that aubergine is eggplant!:D

Thanks mummy_tummy! :D There were a few things in the book that I wasn't sure about. I will have to post them here to see if you lot can help me out.

We will do our best! You can also help us if we need a American/Canadian to UK explanation!

I love those recipe books too! They sell them on Amazon but I usually have found them in book shops near me.
