A good reason

Indian cuisines are diverse: pulses, vegetables, rice, bread and spices combine differently by region. An aromatic sauce starts long before the final spoonful of spice.

The collection combines classic references and personal variations. Origin labels follow the existing cookbook and do not claim an exclusive origin.

The cooking guide keeps the ingredients and instructions at hand in each recipe. You decide when to move on.

A little cooking know-how

Good ingredients.
Simply explained.

Three tips to get you started. Each recipe gives its precise quantities, cooking times and variations.

Don’t burn spices

Ground spices toast faster than whole ones. Stay by the pot and follow the stated order.

Distinguishing lentils

Hulled and unhulled varieties need different cooking times and amounts of liquid.

Adding yoghurt gently

Large temperature differences can make a sauce split. Follow the recipe’s method.
