Madhur Jaffrey's Spice Kitchen, Fifty recipies introducing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Madhur Jaffrey's Spice Kitchen: Fifty Recipes Introducing Indian Spices and Aromatic Seeds (Hardcover)
I received this book in a East Indian spice kit almost 8 yrs. ago. Since then, I have accumulated 6 more books on Indian cuisine...my favorite still continues to be 'M.J.'s the Spice Kitchen'. The recipes take longer that the average american cook likes to spend but these are mouth watering...and remember this is the way cooking is done in India (I've tryed the shortcuts with the pressure cooker,etc. results shift to just good) I beleive the spice interplays need the long cook time...there is just no comparison using the faster cooking methods. Also Madhur Jaffrey is sensitive to the american palatte regarding heat. But do be aware that any recipe that uses raw chilis and cayenne will be hot! A good recipe from the book is the Lamb in Tomato sauce as the heat comes mostly from the black pepper and is added at the end. Enjoy!

Gorgous little book, scrummy recipes,
By A Customer
This review is from: Madhur Jaffrey's Spice Kitchen: Fifty Recipes Introducing Indian Spices and Aromatic Seeds (Hardcover)
This little book is a wonderful introduction to Indian spices. Some of the ingredients will be difficult to locate, but Jaffrey takes the time to explain the origin and uses of everything in detail. Most recipes are not quick, but the ones I've tried are scrummy. It's illustrated by the author throughout, and is beautifully designed. A great gift for someone interested in Indian cooking
