<p><strong>When you&rsquo;ve spent a hungry year under&nbsp;a tree</strong>, you learn what food really means.</p>

<p>Sometime in the late 70s, a small boat&nbsp;set sail from South Vietnam, riding dangerously&nbsp;low in the water with its human&nbsp;cargo.&nbsp;Among the passengers were a young&nbsp;couple and their four children fleeing the&nbsp;chaos of war. They would spend the next 13 months surviving&nbsp;the uncertainty and hardship&nbsp;of a refugee camp before settling&nbsp;in a new and strange nation:&nbsp;Britain.</p>

<p>One of those children was <strong>Lynne Chang</strong>. 'Lynne&#39;s Month of Meals' comprises 30 classic Indochinese recipes handed down through the generations,&nbsp;learnt at&nbsp;an early&nbsp;age from&nbsp;her much-loved mother and grandmother.</p>

<ul>
<li>Step-by-step methods include preparation and cooking times</li>
<li>Many practical tips and hints for today&rsquo;s non-cooks!</li>
