Indian Family Cookbook

 

When self-taught home cook Simon Daley tasted his future mother-in-law Roshan's chicken curry for the first time, he was smitten. Simon asked Roshan to teach him her vast personal collection of recipes and now, in their kitchen, a special friendship flourishes. Beautifully packaged with a textured cover treatment, this unique book draws on the extensive repertoire of an exceptional home cook, including traditional dishes passed down from mother to daughter over centuries, from the family's Gujerati roots in India to modern adaptations. Recipes include Pumpkin and Spinach Curry, Cumin-fried Chicken, Lemon Salt Pickle, Sweetcorn with Pepper Butter, and Milk Dumplings in Cardamom Syrup. Stunning, modern photography of Simon and Roshan cooking at home, with step-by-step sequences to illustrate the more unique techniques, complements the lively, personal text. Includes dual measures.
