"The Takeaway Secret" is a book which will enable readers to cook their own tasty takeaway food at home. After over 5 years of research and investigation, the secret ingredients and cooking techniques used by takeaway and fast food restaurants can now finally be revealed. In today's increasingly health conscious and now financially cautious world, there's never been a better time to learn the secrets of cooking your own takeaway food at home. From now on, the takeaway menu will become an inspiration to cook, not an expensive option for dinner. Some of the recipes which can now be faithfully recreated at home include Lamb Donner and Chicken Kebabs, Chicken and Vegetable Pakora, Szechuan Chicken, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Chicken Wings, Spare Ribs, Triple-Decker Burgers, Chicken Burgers, Spiced Onions, Kebab Sauces, Sub Rolls, Wraps and many more. Many recipe books call for an extensive and expensive list of ingredients, often interesting to read but impractical for everyday cooking. "The Takeaway Secret" will stand out as the modern cookbook, ideal for a generation of people who desire delicious food, delivered quickly without the need to slave over a hot stove for hours on end.The recipes included make it possible for home cooks, both novice and professional, to recreate their favorite takeaway and fast food restaurant dishes in their own kitchen.

And a Pizza Hut!! You can now create the tastes and smells of your favouritre fast food outlets in your very own kitchen!
I am so impressed with the book that I am planning a trip to the supermarket to buy a load of ingredients as tonight I fancy American style burgers! This book is a must buy for fast food fans.

 Finger lickin' good!

I loved 'The Curry Secret' (which you should totally get too by the way) and someone mentioned this book to me. It's just as amazing! The KFC recipe is pretty good, but the the burgers and Chinese recipes are great. Haven't tried the kebabs yet but heard they're genius so I'm going to give them a try. Better than the takeaway and waaaay cheaper! Buy this book and save a fortune!!!

 Such a good buy!

Literally the best cookbook we've ever bought.

The special burger sauce has made every burger, sandwich or salad ridiculously tasty, and you can make it so healthy too because you're in control of exactly what goes in.

The burgers, kebabs and curries are all we've tried so far, and we've loved every recipe.

About the only negative to the entire book is most of the best recipes require preparation the morning or night before, but honestly that's just good food discipline and it's left us excited to try what we've prepared the night before.

Don't be put off by the images on the cover, the old saying don't judge a book by it's cover has never been more true!

Don't be put off by it being a book about take away food and assume it's all unhealthy, this couldn't be less true, you can control sugars, salts and fats and we've found even the healthiest versions are still just as tasty.

We can't recommend this enough, no matter your level of cooking experience this book will gently teach and reward you.
