Summary: Easy & Delicious
Comment: My husband and I both love Indian cuisine and have tried many times over the years to cook it, much to our disappointment. We've purchased many Indian cookbooks, but we could never get the recipes to turn out very good. We had almost given up and resigned ourselves to only eating Indian food at restaurants. Then I found this book. It came recommended to me by some Indian friends who said it was easy, authentic & they enjoyed most of the recipes. So far, every recipe we've tried has been great. I am getting results as good or better than restaurant fare for the first time in years! And the recipe presentation is so easy, I'm even trying to make some of the recipes that I used to think would be too hard, like some of the stuffed breads. I have a lot of cookbooks, but I find myself making recipes out of this one all the time. There are also plenty of quick recipes, so even if you've had a long day, you can still have great Indian meal in a half an hour. If you like Indian food, you won't be disappointed with this book.

Summary: Easy to make, authentic tastes, lower-fat Indian food
Comment: I can say quite accurately that I have tasted every single dish in this excellent Indian vegetarian cookbook. The genesis of this collaboration between Ms. Humbad and Dr. Boger is described by the publisher's review. What emerged from this collaboration were accurate and well-tested refinements of classic Indian dishes: accurate to the tastes of India, altered over the years of collaboration to lower the fat content - but not too much to change the taste. Substitutions of ingredients were tried to accommodate availability but were rejected in cases when this compromised the result. The make-ability of these dishes was tediously worked out, simplifying a process classically done by a retinue of expert cooks in a wealthy household. Humbad and Boger simplified the process of the recipe creation down to easy to follow directions that can usually be accomplished in minutes by any competent cook who can follow clear directions. The recipes span all kinds of dishes, and the clever cook will find it easy to add just one "Indian dish" to an otherwise ordinary lunch or dinner menu; you don't necessarily have to gear up to make an entire Indian meal. The presentation of the menus themselves is done in a unique fashion, listing both the ingredients by category, so the cook can assemble the dish easily, and then listing step-by-step instructions with all the ingredients repeated now in order of use. The illustrations are evocative and the whole book is the kind of thing you'd be happy to toss into any gift package. How do I know so much about this book? I am Dr. Boger's husband, and, as I said, I have eaten every dish in this book, both in their final, fool-proof form, and in the many preceding versions before they were perfected!
