incredible taste of indian vegetarian cuisine

This is what the Author has to say about her book. The book offers innumerable number of pertinacious vegetarian and Non vegetarian dishes. To help you understand the origin and foundations of Indian cooking, I have also included bits of information on the history of the Indian subcontinent and its influence on Indian cooking. The recipes are written with a global appeal in mind and most of them include its Indian name and an English description as well as step-by-step instructions on how to create a quick, easy, delicious and healthy Indian dish. I have also described the health benefits of each spice used and its Indian name. The recipes are authentically Indian but often I have fused locally available ingredients so as to appeal to the western palate. Helpful Hints and Notes are given in some recipes to help you in preparation of that recipe. It is a 480 page hardbound book with 8.5x11 inches in size. It is currently selling at Barnes and noble Book sores and Borders book stores at 39.99. It has 325 recipes and beautiful pictures of recipes with their origin. The recipes are written using the healthful spices and explaining the benefits of the spices used. I have tried to emphasize that the use of spices is not only to make the dish delicious and aromatic but they have deeper healthful meaning behind it. The book also has the colorful pictures of India's culture, its historical monuments and festivals.
