My Sweet Kitchen

A collection of Vineet Bhatia’s most treasured and iconic dessert dishes - inspired by a lifelong sweet tooth – My Sweet Kitchen is plethora of innovative, experimental treats from one of the world’s most renowned Indian chefs.

Each unique recipe, designed to appeal to a ‘non-Indian palate’, explores Vineet’s imaginative use of ingredients and techniques, made entirely achievable for the passionate home cook.

With recipes merging influences from east and west, playing on sharp versus sweet, warm versus cold and soft versus crisp – My Sweet Kitchen begins with the basics (pastes, curds and tuiles) before moving on to the creation of those show-stopping desserts.

Divided into ingredient–led chapters, such as ‘Milk’, ‘Fruit’ and ‘Chocolate’, recipes include chai panna cotta, peach-pecan filo moneybag and chocolate cumin fondant. The penultimate chapter, ‘A piece of cake, A slice of tart’ takes recipes inspired by people and places including Vineet’s beloved homeland of Mumbai.

Suitable for all occasions, this isn’t by any stretch a typical dessert book, rather an ‘expression of creative freedom in the kitchen’, a celebration of that often under appreciated final course.
