Customer Reviews

Delicious, but ...

Dishes prepared according to these recipes are great. The lay-out of the book is very clever: three fold-out sections, each spiral bound at the top, so you can view three recipes at once (tandoori, curry, and vegetarian). This book could be better, however. My complaints: (i) The ingredients are listed in alphabetical order, rather than order of use. (ii) Measures are presented inconsistently. Sometimes both European (weight) and American (volume) measures are given, but sometimes only the European measures are provided. Americans without a good gram scale will not be able to prepare some of these recipes. (iii) The photographs do not resemble the dishes prepared according to the recipe. Some license is expected in photographs of food, but these border on fakery.

Excellent Reference

This is a great reference for the beginner as well as a seasoned cook. The planner style makes it really easy for me to plan a whole meal. The recipes are detailed and authentic. The images with the recipe is a plus. I love it.

Recipes for some of the best East Indian dishes (with colour pictures!)

I've owned this book for over five years and have tried several dozen of the recipes. Every one has been a hit so far: the resultant dishes rival anything you could find in a thali (indian serving dish) ordered at the best of indian restaurants. Kudos to the chefs and author of the book!

Decent book...

I picked up this book in a local store (I basically liked the planner style layout of the book). Overall I think the recipes are good (authentic), all ingredients are authentically Indian and all recipes have accompanying images.
