In the first book to combine Indian flavours with European tastes, Pat Chapman, Britain's foremost authority on curries and spicy food, brings us a 'Taste of the Raj'.
With six generations of ancestors serving the British Raj, Pat grew up knowing that traditional English meals, once in the hands of the skilful Indian cooks, became something wonderfully spicy and colourful. Now, keeping this extraordinary style of cooking alive, Pat has selected and developed over 100 recipes from his grandmother's original Indian cookbook.
Here you'll find tasty recipes for a Raj breakfast, or an afternoon tea, for unusual appetisers or for an incredible six-course dinner. The delicious starters, main courses and desserts are perfect for every occasion. And Pat has, of course, included a whole chapter on authentic Raj curries.
Entertaining and enchanting, this book is an essential possession for those who adore curry and spicy food.
