Wright is one half of "Two Fat Ladies", and is rightly considered to be a national treasure, with nine cookery books, a food anthology and an autobiography to her name, the last of which spent 6 months on "The Sunday Times" bestseller list, with the paperback edition coming out in conjuncture with this recipe book. Remembering that food should restore body and mind, Wright revives and simplifies classic recipes such as Chicken Soup and Steamed Sponge Pudding, so comfort food can easily be put together and indulged in.
