Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I too, was really excited to start cooking from this book after seeing the movie. I couldn't wait to make the lasagna. It took me hours to complete and tasted absolutely horrible. I thought it was a strange mix of ingredients but after hearing it raved about on the movie I was willing to try. Next I tried the wild rice, cabbage and chick pea pilaf. While it showed promise it was very, very, very bland even with the ginger. I started looking for the stroganoff recipe which has the wrong page number referenced. Recipes are way too complicated and nobody wants to put in that much shopping and cooking time for awful results.
