Delia's Recipebook
These are some of Delia Foord's recipes. Delia is Romanian, but has lived in England for the last few years. She is an extraordinary cook [1], and her cooking is a combination of English and traditional Romanian dishes.
The name of this website, in case you hadn't already guessed, is a tribute to that other famous cooking Delia: Delia Smith.

A chicken dish, cooked with a sour-cream sauce.
- Thai Chicken and Noodles
Two recipes for the price of one! Thai chicken sauce (with coconut milk) served with noodles. The Thai chicken sauce is a very mild curry and can be made from leftover chicken.

Another recipe from Delia's mother, this sauce makes a great accompaniment to meat but is good enough to eat on its own (suitable for vegetarians).
Some of these recipes are suitable for those on a vegetarian diet, but please check the ingredients yourself!
