U.K. CELEB CHEF Gordon Ramsay's rep as an expletive-spewing kitchen commando hasn't won him any pals on TV shows such as "Hell's Kitchen." But he must fare better at home -- or, at least, that's what his latest book, "Gordon Ramsay Cooking for Friends" ($35, William Morrow), suggests.

He ramps up comfort foods (a fresh herb-powered chicken pie, almond-spiked chocolate swirl cheesecake) while keeping them simple enough to make for an impromptu Sunday brunch, either for a solo snacker or a table of guests — who, presumably, like him better than his co-stars do.
