Recipes in this cookbook are straight-forward and produce great results. I particular recommend the fish in coconut and coriander sauce (mashli ghashi) and leaf-wrapped fish (patra-ni-machchi). Chicken in yogurt (dahi murgh) was also a big hit. The author is especially attentive to the use of spices and gives clear instructions to get the most from them. It takes time and attention to produce a main dish and vegetable, but it is worth the effort.

Two things sold me on this book - a limited number of spices/herbs to work with and the use of as little oil/fat as possible. All the recipes I've tried have been great and easily committed to memory after a few meals. I was able to find every ingredient I needed at Nashville's local Indian grocery. Hint - use fresh curry leaves. I looked at a good number of books before settling on this one and I'm glad I did.

I have already tried five recipes from this book and they were all amazing. I have quite a few other Indian cookbooks, and this one is by far my favorite. I will be giving this book as a gift to my friends and family.
