Easy Indian Vegetarian: Delicious Recipes for Every Day
Author: Chetna Makan
I am on a culinary quest. While seeking more work/life balance, I am also looking to vary my diet and cooking skills. I have lived in a large metro region for 4 years now. It's time to take advantage of the many different markets and grocery options there are here for cooking just about any international cuisine.
I started with Indian food because I enjoy it. Love the ingredients and the spices. But....I want to learn every day options, not the fussy, fancy stuff served in restaurants. I want food that I can cook at home while juggling my busy work life. Relaxing.....not stressful.
So I grabbed this basic Indian vegetarian cookbook and one other one from my local library to try some recipes. I'm not looking to cook to impress.....but to cook for happiness and fun. Has to be simple.....and not fussy.
This book delivered just that!! Everything from flatbreads and snacks to side dishes and desserts! Yum!
The dishes are relatively simple and use normal ingredients. The instructions are straight forward. There are also many color photos in the book.
This is a great starting place for me! I can make some tasty flatbread to accompany meals, a lovely main course or just try out a new vegetarian side dish. Most of the ingredients I already have in my pantry, or know right where to go locally to buy what I need.
I enjoyed the variety of recipes in this book. Recipe types are organized by chapter and there is also an index in the back of the book.
Yum!! I forsee many happy hours in my kitchen!
