Ms. Jaffrey's recipes are easy to follow, but produce delightfully spicy, fragrant dishes. Her mixture of spices adds wonderful flavor to traditional indian dishess. Recipes are good for a good home meal or for entertaining company.


5 out of 5 stars Great even for a relative kitchen klutz!   March 24, 2007

I've never had a lot of confidence in the kitchen, so when I got this cookbook I felt discouraged - the recipes looked amazing, but the ingredient lists were long and included spices that I'd never used before. Thank goodness I decided to give it a shot anyway - I found some of my all-time favorite recipes in this book! The Moghlai spinach recipe is my favorite - simple to prepare but absolutely irresistible to eat. I have yet to run into anything confusing in this book, and it's even given me the confidence to improvise in the kitchen. My favorite cookbook by far.

I really missed indian food when I came to live in the US from England. These recipes are so easy to follow and they taste so authentic .I have enjoyed hunting down the spices and have been making my way through the book. I especially liked the chicken korma with the vegetable pullao.My only complaint if I have one is that I would have liked to see more recipes. However I really liked that the author included a section on the ingredients (aka spices) and hints on where to purchase and how to store.I certainly would reccommend this as a starter book to indian cookery

After eating many amazing Indian dishes and hoping to replicate them at home with absolutely no luck & lots of disappointment, we found this book and we were delighted! Many Indian cook books intimadated us with lengthy receipes calling for a laundry list of ingredients. However, this book keeps the ingrediants fairly basic (perfect for a native midwesterner and her german husband), BUT it stays true to the Indian flavor that we yearn for!
We'd definitely recommend this book because the recipes helped us to replicate many of our favorite meals that we had eaten at restaurants.
