This unique cookbook takes the reader on a culinary journey of India--the land of fragrant spices and savory dishes. Working in collaboration with Raghavan Iyer, a noted Indian culinary expert, Betty Crocker takes the mystery out of Indian cooking while keeping every dish authentic and truly satisfying.
The book includes delicious regional recipes from every area of India--from hearty breads to spicy sides, succulent main courses to sumptuous desserts--all served up in Betty Crocker's signature style. It clearly explains the staples of the Indian kitchen, and offers buying tips as well as substitutions for hard-to-find ingredients.
But this is more than just a cookbook. Fascinating photos and information about Indian traditions, as well as Chef Iyer's own memories of life in India, immerse readers in the richness of India's land and culture--and make this a book to savor.
Included in this volume: 180 foolproof recipes; 70 gorgeous full-color photos of the delicious food as well as additional photos of the people and country of India; glossaries and identification photos of spices and herbs, fresh produce, pantry items and cooking equipment; and menu suggestions.
