Yummy Treats with Bobby Flay

I was watching the Food Network yesterday during lunch and spent a nice half-hour drooling over Bobby Flay making homemade lamb chili with a red pepper relish, a cumin creme fraiche, guacamole and fry bread. It looked so delicious! When I returned to work, I was inspired to explore some other recipes in cookbooks written by Bobby Flay. One cookbook that caught my eye was Bobby Flay's Burgers, Fries and Shakes. The book discusses all sorts of relishes and condiments to elevate the "classic burger flavored with salt and pepper" to the status of a gourmet meal. After you've mastered the burger, you can experiment with making the best French fries, whether they are grilled, fried, or oven roasted, or made from potatoes, sweet potatoes or plantains. You can then top off your meal with a scrumptious, creamy shake! The recipes in this book are easy to follow and have beautiful colored photograph illustrations. I love Bobby Flay's relaxed manner and way of teaching--this cookbook is perfect for any level of cook. If you aren't fond of burgers, the library also has several other Bobby Flay cookbooks you could try! Bobby Flay is the chef-owner of three Mesa Grill restaurants (in New York City, Caesar's Palace Las Vegas, and the Bahamas), Bar Americain, Bobby Flay Steak and Bobby's Burger Palace.
