Salsas, Dips and Relishes

A salsa turns an ordinary meal into a culinary delight. Simple to make and fun to serve, these side dishes are perfect for all occasions. Salsas can be fiery hot, or cool and creamy so it is easy to choose the perfect accompaniment to any meal. Try Double Chilli Salsa, Creamy Aubergine Dip or Guacamole at a party with crudites or crisps; serve Piquant Pineapple Relish at a barbecue; or liven up a simple sandwich or baked potato with Smoky Tomato Salsa or Basil and Lemon Mayonnaise. This book even includes recipes for dessert dips to serve with fruit. Salsas, dips and relishes are seriously fast food - most need no cooking at all. A few fresh ingredients and some store-cupboard standbys are all you need to create delicious dishes such as Feta and Olive Salsa, Red Onion Raita, Chilli Bean Dip and Spicy Sweetcorn Relish. All of the recipes have clear instructions with glorious full colour photographs to encourage you. So when you want to jazz up your cooking, dip into this book and produce a spectacular salsa.
