Modern Indian Cooking CustomerReview
As a world traveler, international culinary afficionada, and avid cookbook collector with some 2000 volumes in my collection, many of them devoted to Indian cooking, I heartily recommend Modern Indian Cooking by Hari Nayak and Vikas Khanna. In addition to the book being beautifully designed and accompanied by mouthwatering photos, it introduces a wide selection of modern healthy recipes guaranteed to please the palate of even those who regard traditional Indian fare as too heavy on the use of exotic spices. All of the recipes are good, but be sure to try the Oven-Roasted Spicy Eggplant and the Cumin Coriander Beef Patties, although I modify the latter by adding soft bread crumbs to the mixture to make them extra moist and tender, although this can be done to any recipe for burgers, including the traditional American variety. In short, the volume is a fresh take on an ancient cuisine that is sure to win new converts to Indian cooking.
