Kyle Books Indian Cookery Course

Ich liebe es! Eines der besten Bücher für die indische Küche. Sehr authentische Zutaten, die eigentlich überall - oder wenigstens im Netz - erhältlich sind. Die Anleitungen sind gut nachzuvollziehen, einiges ist ein wenig aufwendiger, es lohnt die Zeit aber allemal, die Aromen sind unvergleichlich. Echtes Soulfood! Ich habe einige andere, aber dies ist das meist benutzte. Aus keinem schmeckt alles so gut wie hier!

Pretty good, covers most of categories in food like, rice, vegetables, eggs, meat etc. It even has recipes for sambar powder, garam masala. Even how to make yoghurt and paneer.

Cabe destacar que no es simplemnte un recetario, es un curso de cocina India, pero más allá de eso, incluye un material gráfico espectacular, fotografías de la India increíbles. En cuanto a la información esta separada en recetas, información general de cada tipo de comida, ingredientes, etc., y también tiene "masterclass" donde explica con gran detalle cómo hacer una receta específica. Es un libro hermoso, la edición del mismo es increíble, es de muy buena calidad.

I have a large collection of Indian cookbooks and spend many a weekend walking around Hounslow or Wembley buying Indian ingredients for cooking at home or sampling various authentic dishes. Many Indian cookbooks concentrate a little too much in the area of Indian cuisine that the author grew up in and it is quite difficult to find a book that covers all the variety of regional India. It's even less likely that they include little masterclasses on how to perfect each technique. Quite bizarrely, a few months ago, a gentlemen started to talk to me at a bus stop commented on books that I had just purchased and mentioned this book. I am presuming he was the "crazy cow vet" who has also reviewed this book. (He mentioned he had been on Monisha's course, bought 6 copies of the book and couldn't praise it enough:-). The books strong points: Good high level regional coverage of different Indian Cuisine Authentic recipes Well Illustrated Simple instructions Well structured and edited Some commentary and background, but thankfully not the endless storytelling many cookbooks now suffer from. Its actually quite difficult to fault this book. There are more comprehensive and detailed books out there on regional Indian cooking, e.g. Dakshin for south Indian food which is superb, but If you want to get into Indian cooking and only want to buy one book, buy this one. (I have over 50 Indian cookbooks at home and would fling 90% of them out for this one book). At this price it's a steal. Well done Monisha, stellar book.

I appreciated the recipes and directions in this cookbook. It was very readable and helped me learn more about the cooking of India.
