Book Reviews of Madhur Jaffrey's Quick & Easy Indian Cooking

Book Review: Indian Cooking for the Intimidated
Summary: 5 Stars

I've wanted to try making Indian dishes for awhile now but frankly, I've been a bit intimidated by it. Let's face it, Indians are known for their magical use of spices in cooking and a lot of those spices I've never even heard of. That's why I love this cookbook so much. Madhur Jaffrey keeps the list to a mininum and most of those you can find fairly easy. You may even already have some of them on hand from holiday baking!

So far, I've made about six or seven dishes from the book and all of them have been wonderful. Although, I was less impressed with the mushroom curry. However, that might have been user error. All the recipes have been clear and not hard to make at all. I love the way my house smells when I'm cooking them and feel that if I were served them in a restaurant, I'd come back for more! Add to that, the author's intimate way of writing makes it seem as if she wrote these recipes especially for you. It is by far, my favorite cookbook now. If you've ever wanted to try cooking Indian food, I think this is the perfect book for beginners.

That being said, if you want to know nutritional information for the recipes, it's not here. Just in case that's a deal-breaker for some of you. For those of you who think ignorance is bliss, dive on in! You won't regret it.
