waited and waited
The book I ordered arrived a month or more after I ordered it. It was in perfect condition. It became a late Christmas gift.
Delicious and easy
A VERY nice collection of recipes that are fun and easy to cook (to say nothing of the tasty results!). I have never regretted that I bought this book. It's my most used book on the kitchen bookshelf!Our family's favourites are the meat dishes. Linda Fraser gives a good variety of meats to use: lamb, beef, pork, chicken, duck. So far, we have not been disappointed in any recipe (and we bought the book in 2000). Highly recommended if you like Indian cuisine, but do not feel like an expert in Indian cooking. All spices used in this book's recipes are easily available in grocery stores.
A great introduction to Indian cooking.
In its almost 50 parts, all written by experienced cooks and cook book writers, HP Books' "The Book of ... Cooking" series takes you to the cuisines of various regions of the U.S. and around the world; all in easy to follow, well-explained recipes.
This installment, the Book of Curries and Indian Foods, presents recipe suggestions for all major courses, from meat dishes to pickles, accompaniments, breads and drinks. Special chapters are dedicated to poultry, vegetable dishes, fish and shellfish, and desserts. Classics such as yogurt dishes, tikkas, chutneys, curries, milkshakes, naan, spiced tea and tandoori chicken appear next to unique dishes such as cilantro and chile fish, coconut spiced cod, duck with honey and lime, pork in spinach sauce, rose water pudding, and shrimp and mustard seeds.
From apricot and chicken curry to white and red radish salad, this collection of recipes, while not all-encompassing, is a great introduction to the richness of the Indian cuisine - and at a relative bargain price, to boot. Also recommended for fans of Asian cooking: this series' installments on Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese and Chinese Cooking and on Stir-Fries.
