Cookin' with Coolio

There's only one thing that Coolio's been doing longer than rapping and that's cooking. He was cooking for himself from the age of ten and he hasn't ever looked back. When growing up poor, Coolio learned how to turn a tin of tuna, some bread and a bottle of chilli sauce into a masterpiece. As the first exponent of "Ghetto Gourmet" Coolio's recipes are built solid comfort foods with a healthy twist. His meals don't break the bank because while growing up poor, Coolio learned that you don't have to be rich to eat well. Coolio mixes-in fusion recipes including Italian, Mexican and Asian. As Coolio says, "All you need is a little bit of food, and a little bit of know-how." Cookin' with Coolio features 75 tasty, easy-to-make and economical recipes accompanied by 25 full-colour pictures. The book covers everything you need to know and is sure to entertain with chapters called 'How to Become a Kitchen Pimp, Appetizers for that ass, Salad eatin' bitches and Pimpin' the poultry.'
