3.0 out of 5 stars Sloppy, but large, 7 Jun 2006
By D. Moller (Copenhagen) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Classic 1000 Indian Recipes (Paperback)
This is the third Indian cookbook I've bought, and it has been rather inspiring. It contains the promised 1000 recipes, and there where a lot I had never heard of. If you want to learn about more than just curries, and maybe find out how to make Indian food without always making curries, it's just great. It has a lot of recipes such as Rasams, which are much lighter (curries tend to be greasy), and they are easy to make. How ever, one has to be very careful just following the text, not everything is worth cooking at all, and some things are rather absurd. I've had some annoying cooking mishaps using this book. Another almost unforgivable feature is that they must have reedited the book to fit the shopping possibilities of the west. Now, I don't mind adaptations, but it should be made clear when a substitute is used, and what the original is. F.ex. in the chutney section, the recipes calls for apples, but in the "how-to-do-it" text, it's mangoes. Very sloppy editing, and a silly idea (mangoes and apples are just not the same). Still I'm not sorry I bought it, with a little common sense in sorting, and a little prior knowledge of Indian cooking, it makes a good source of inspiration and often times a new way of using Indian without drowning in cholesterol.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very authentic easy to read book !, 3 Nov 2003
By M. Gogate (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Classic 1000 Indian Recipes (Paperback)
Being born and brought up in Bombay has exposed me to a variety of Indian food.
This book has a list of almost everything I can think of that is made in India. Right from making different varieties of spices to all the preparations from north to south of India.
The book is divided into various sections for vegetarian, meat, fish, sweet dishes, etc.
I use this book a lot for making curries new to me and they turn out to be absolute yummy !
Even my mate - who is British makes great food with that book !
In short this book is highly recommended and should be a part of every food lover's kitchen...

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, 9 Nov 2007
By zztopbanana (Lancashire, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: The Classic 1000 Indian Recipes (Paperback)
This recipe book is a superb addition to anyone's culinary library - clearly not every recipe will suit every person but it is inconceivable that you would not find a significant number of useful recipes in here and even if you found just one nugget, then considering the price, it would be well worth it.

The variety of recipes in the 1000 series is simply staggering - to say you are stuck for choice is an understatement. And there is a vegetarian section in this too which is an extremely useful feature.

Ok, so there are no photographs but against that, the books don't cost a fortune either and they are compact.

You really cannot go wrong with any of these recipe books and when you consider they cost little more than 1 issue of pretty much any food magazine, well, they truly are an absolute bargain.

Buy this one, buy them all - you won't be disappointed.
