5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational and Delicious, April 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Book of Curries and Indian Foods (Paperback)
Terrific recipes. This is a fun and tasty introduction to Indian cookery! I've tried about 25 of the recipes with excellent results. The steps are clearly illustrated, easy to follow, and produce dishes that look like the picture, smell wonderful, and taste great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious and easy, June 5, 2004
By 
This review is from: The Book of Curries and Indian Foods (Paperback)
A VERY nice collection of recipes that are fun and easy to cook (to say nothing of the tasty results!). I have never regretted that I bought this book. It's my most used book on the kitchen bookshelf!

Our family's favourites are the meat dishes. Linda Fraser gives a good variety of meats to use: lamb, beef, pork, chicken, duck. So far, we have not been disappointed in any recipe (and we bought the book in 2000).

Highly recommended if you like Indian cuisine, but do not feel like an expert in Indian cooking. All spices used in this book's recipes are easily available in grocery stores.

5.0 out of 5 stars Colorful & tasty! :), April 14, 2002

creativedawn (Bullhead City, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Book of Curries and Indian Foods (Paperback)
This colorful indian cookbook has photos of every recipe with simple directions. A lot of basic recipes for spice mixes & coconut milk, chapati, naan, other breads are this book along with a section at the beginning explaining cultural influences. There are tasty desserts like "Cashew Nut Fudge," "Pistachio Halva," along with wonderfully refreshing drinks "Lime & Mint Drink," "Indian Summer Punch," and more! Tasty main dish recipes for "Creamy Saffron Fish Curry," "Lemon & Coriander Chicken," "Coriander Leaf Chutney" and lots more. One comment I will make is that most of the main dishes are meat or seafood so if you are a strict vegetarian this may not be the right cookbook for you. It's a good basics cookbook for someone not familiar with how to make indian foods.
