Real Fast Vegetarian Food

For too long, vegetarian food has conjured up images of heavy food and 'worthy-but-dull' recipes. Now, Ursula Ferrigno has reinvented vegetarian cooking to show anybody can create dishes that are bursting with flavour and colour with the absolute minimum of fuss. Her recipes are mainly based on the exuberence of the Italian cooking although she finds time for influences from Spain, France, Greece and North Africa. Real Fast Vegetarian Food is a vital ingredient in any cook's library.

Ursula Ferrigno is a passionate vegetarian cook and former principal tutor for Cordon Vert. She trained in Paris before starting her own business manufacturing vegetarian recipes. Her food is now stocked by outlets such as Harvey Nichols.
