Spice Kitchen is a fresh, bright and beautifully designed cookbook that moves away from the staid, dark photography of many Indian cookbooks currently on the market.
Divided into chapters according to ingredients - fish, poultry, meat and vegetables with additional sections for starters and accompaniments, side dishes and desserts, it's a vibrant, fresh take on Indian food as we know it. There is also a basics section for spice blends and breads as well as a glossary for the less initiated.
Recipes include much loved dishes from The Spice Kitchen restaurant including Roasted lamb shank masala, Pork belly ribs with curry leaves, coconut and tomato and Twice-cooked fish jhalferazie as well as more traditional recipes for chutneys, pakoras, and dal. Delicious desserts such as halvas, kulfis and pancakes are also included.
With an emphasis on authentic dishes that are easy to recreate at home Spice Kitchen is a musthave for lovers of Indian cuisine and those who adore cooking fresh, authentic, flavoursome food.
