Format:Paperback
Indian food typically is peasant's food, and is simple to make (if you know what you are doing) and inexpensive. I thus consider new fangled ideas of Indian-like cooking (read Americanisation of Indian cooking) a method to increase prices. How can peasant's food be expensive?? I have also been offended that most people who think they try Indian food, dont really get an idea of the authentic cuisines of India.
I am not against improvisation or innovation when it comes to
cooking, but I think you should know the original first before you learn about the improvised/ innovated versions to get a true sense -- like loving a classic car before someone made a Hot Rod (YUCK!) out of it...
But this book, opened my eye to innovation in cooking -- in taking something good and making it better by being open to new ideas. It is well presented with beautiful photographs and well written, and the choice of recipes is exemplary too..
I love this book, and it may well convert me into a avid cook!
I recommend it...
