In most people's minds, there's a lushness to the flavors of India: all that spiced curry sauces that smell like incense when they're cooking and thick, flavorful chutneys in an amazing variety of colors, tastes, and textures. Foulsham's series brings the many moods of Indian cuisine to European and American cooks. Recipes use ingredients you don't have to order from Bombay and utensils you already have in the kitchen.

Customer Rating: Summary: Easy to follow, but it doesn't taste authentic.. Comment: I tried three classic Indian recipes off if this book and none of them tasted "great." Of course, it was good but I didn't think it was great. They do recommend adjusting amount on some of the ingredients to your taste, but it is extremely hard to do when you are using over 10 spices. I was just a little disappointed in the results. Customer Rating: Summary: A lot of recipes in this little book! Comment: I own several Indian Cookbooks but I couldn't resist this one. What the other books don't cover in recipes - this one will! Pretty simple to use - some pics throughout. (can't expect 1000 pics in a book). I've tried 5 or 6 recipes now and it's the one I turn to first when I want to try a new dish. So far, everything I've made turned out good! Customer Rating: Summary: Great Indian Cook Book! Comment: I bought this book for my wife, well actually she asked me for the book. Anyway, she has been cooking a lot of recipies from it, and all I can say is WOW! The food is great! GET THIS BOOK! Customer Rating: Summary: Great all around Indian cookbook Comment: I was looking for a recipe that matched something I had in a restaurant and it was in this book. I love Indian food and this book has it all. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent for those who know Indian cooking techniques! Comment: This cookbook is ideal for those who've watched their Indian mothers prepare meals but need some help in determining "exact measurements". The book does not describe technique very well, but after having seen my mother fix meals hundreds of times, I didn't need much instruction in technique. I needed help in ingredients and amounts. I modify the recipes in the book a little to more closely mimic my mother's cooking and have learned some new things along the way. I've found that many of the foods I grew up with in the cookbook turn out very well!
The index is a little difficult to sort through since various Indian foods have different names. Be patient!
