Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
A number of good Indian cookbooks have appeared recently, including Chandra Padmanabhan's Dakshin (LJ 4/15/94) and Neelam Batra's The Indian Vegetarian (LJ 6/15/94), and Jaffrey's quick and easy recipes are a nice addition to these more ambitious titles. Well known both as an authority on Indian cuisine and as an actress, Jaffrey offers dishes that are authenic-no skimping on the all-important Indian spices-but have been streamlined or are simple enough to be made, on the whole, in fewer than 30 minutes: Delicious Chicken Bits, Spicy Grilled Fish, Chicken in a Green Coriander Sauce. She writes with charm and sophistication, and her mouth-watering recipes are very tempting. For most collections.

Good, Easy and Fun Intro to Indian Cooking,
By A Customer
This review is from: Madhur Jaffrey's Quick & Easy Indian Cookery (BBC Books Quick and Easy Cookery Series) (Paperback)
The recipes are simple to understand and great tasting. Suggesting dishes to serve with each recipe help the uninitiated to get started. This is a great cookbook. My favorite - the samosas. Serve it with Tamarind Sauce, Mango Sauce (often found as a pulp in a can) and yoghurt.

My most used cookbook!,
By Teacher Deb (Chicago, Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Madhur Jaffrey's Quick & Easy Indian Cookery (BBC Books Quick and Easy Cookery Series) (Paperback)
This cookbook was recommended to me by my friend from graduate school. I make something from this cookbook at least once a month, often more. I am not from India. We are generally meat and potatoes people from the midwest United States. However, the intense flavors and new spice combos are just what we need to add to the mix. My kids like the recipes and there are many that work well for busy weeknights. Our family favorites are: minced turkey with peas, spicy grilled chicken, chicken in spicy red sauce, delicious chicken bits and chicken breasts baked with green chilis and onions for special occasions. We like to pair some of these recipes with a spicy chickpea recipe from Sandeep Chatterjy's Quick & Easy Indian Vegetarian Cookery. It is so strange that you can get such wildly different flavors with almost the same ingredients.
