In this easy-to-follow award-winning cookbook, author Shubhra Ramineni shows Indian food enthusiasts how to prepare delicious meals at home without spending hours in the kitchen. A first generation Indian-American, Shubhra has developed a no-fuss cooking style that recreates authentic Indian flavors using easy techniques and fresh and easily available ingredients. The Indian food lover will find nearly 100 recipes with helpful photographs—from samosa to naan and mouthwatering curries—for easy-to-make versions of popular dishes from all over India. Throughout this practical book Shubhra shares tricks and short cuts she has learned from her mother, who is originally from Punjab in northern India; her mother-in-law, who is originally from Andhra Pradesh in southern India; family members in India, and professional chefs in the U.S. With a friendly, reassuring voice, Shubhra shows busy home cooks how fun and easy it is to quickly prepare an authentic homemade India meal that tastes wonderful and looks elegant. The cookbook is available worldwide at major bookstores such as Borders, Barnes & Nobles, Om Bookshop in Delhi, India, and on Amazon.com.
