5.0 out of 5 stars Great Indian dishes and easy to cook, April 11, 2005

This review is from: Cook By Numbers Indian: ...Real Cooking Made Easy (Paperback)

I have used this book several times now when cooking for my family and friends. The recipes are easy to make when doing the right preparation upfront: putting the right ingredients in the bowls. The descriptions and shopping list are simple. There is a broad variety of dishes (meat, fish and vegetables) and they really taste great and very Indian. My kids favour the Chicked Tikka Massala, which has a nice sauce and not too spicy. I have several Indian cooking books but this one is my favorite.

An excellent resource for Indian cuisine. Recipes are easy to understand and makes the execution fun. The taste is authentic. I have tried several recipes and they were all very, very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious and difficult to mess up., April 18, 2008

My co-worker came to work consistently with the most fragrant dishes. Upon approaching her I discovered this little gem. I have made 10+ recipes out of it and have not been disappointed yet. I even catered a graduation using this little guy and was able to assemble multiple dishes simultaneously w/o error (even though my bowl selection was spread fairly thin!).

Great investment. If you have a local library check it out. You won't be disappointed.
