Product Description
Review
Indian cooking with an eye on fat content is the underlying theme to this lavishly illustrated book. With a reputation for being on the greasy side, Indian cookery experts Shehzad Husain and Manisha Kanani, set out to provide a healthy alternative to the ghee-ridden dishes so often encountered in Indian restaurants. All the favourites are found within - kormas, baltis, vindaloos - alongside more eclectic dishes such as baked potato with spicy cottage cheese and lamb with apricots. Nutritional notes accompany each recipe along with tips on what best to serve as accompaniments. Don't be put off by the "healthy" title - all the recipes are truly tasty and attractively presented but with the added bonus of being good for you. - Lucy Watson
Product Description
Dispel the myth that healthy eating has to be boring with these flavoursome Indian recipes. Every taste is catered for, from fish and seafood, or vegetarian dishes, to classic meat and chicken curries. As well as Tandoori Chicken or Aloo Sag, there are many new combinations using traditional Indian ingredients. There are also many recipes for side dishes too, including breads, rice and relishes. Each dish has a detailed nutritional analysis compiled by low fat experts, and an informative introduction contains all the basic information you need to know before you start low fat cooking, as well as the secrets of good Indian cookery.

Have borrowed this book off a friend - and am now going to purchase a copy as there are still so many recipes I want to try!
As a gold member of WeightWatchers I am always trying new and exciting ways of preparing food yet keeping it tasty and interesting and this book really hits the mark.
The only slightly negative thing I can say about it is that some of the preparation can be a bit fiddly - but well worth it!

This book is particularly good for beginners(like myself). Includes lots of colourful photographs, information on spices, ingredients and utencils etc, so anyone can start Indian cooking. I like this book because each recipe is well thought out to make it healthy by cutting down fat radically (very good!).
