5.0 out of 5 stars Deliciously refreshing cookbook from new author Monica Bhide, 16 April 2002
By Marc Millon (Devon, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book landed on my desk, bringing with it an immediate scent of exotic spices and flavours that made me want to pack my bags and head straight for the Indian sub-continent. Monica Bhide writes with infectious enthusiasm and passion, and to an audience she assumes may be less than familiar with the flavours of Indian cooking. The recipes are presented in a way that makes you want to try everything, from the simplest to the most intricate and complicated. Most of all, this is a book about home Indian cooking and it is clear that these are the foods that the author herself still loves to eat. Moreover, she is not a slave to authenticity and is quite happy to adapt Indian flavours to western foods and meals, giving, for example, suggestions to add an Indian twist to the American Thanksgiving meal or ideas for an Indian backyard bbq, with Indian lemonade, chicken tikka, and corn-on-the-cob with a spicy rub.
Bringing an ethnic cuisine to a Western audience not familiar with the mores and cultural nuances of the original is never an easy task. I think that Monica Bhide achieves this most ably as she explains both basic techniques to the newcomer to Indian food, recounts charming childhood stories, while providing more challenging recipes for foods that read so deliciously that you just have to try them. Brava, Monica!
