In compiling the Collection cookbooks, Delia has chosen her best and most popular recipes, updating old favourites and adding some that are completely new. These recipe books are aimed both at experienced cooks and at newcomers to homecooking who can be sure that, with Delia's friendly and approachable style, they will be guided by a trusted hand through her fail-safe recipes.

This is the fourth cookbook in the series and is a collection of over 50 of Delia's best fish recipes. Many people shy away from cooking with fresh fish because it seems too difficult and messy. Delia tackles this notion by providing the know-how and plenty of authentic fish dishes to suit all levels of cooking ability.
