Summary: the best cookbook
Comment: I was lucky enough to find thid cookbook in the Oslo Public Library. For me is this cookbook really the best one I have ever had. I have tried maybe 10 dishes and ALL of them were very tasty! My husband and I have some favourites, like Saag Paneer and Kashmiri Gobi but we are constantly trying new ones. It is true, though, that if I lived in the Czech Republic (where I originally come from) it would be very hard to get all the ingredients. But here in Oslo where 25% of the population are immigrants, it is not very hard! And the paneer is actually possible to make at home-that is what I do! Just find the receipe on the net! I really recommend this cookbook to those who want to enjoy vegetarian meals even though they are not vegetarians! Because eating this, you won't miss meat!!

Summary: Add global pizzazz to your cooking!
Comment: In short: This is one of the most inspiring cookbooks I've come across in ages. Nicely designed but not overdone, interesting and often funny personal travelogue tidbits, luscious photographs, easy instructions and best of all, the dishes are divine. There are a couple of hard-to-find ingredients such as paneer (Indian cheese) and I wish the authors had suggested replacements for such items, but overall, I've had very good luck with these recipes. Dinner guests love 'em, too. Add one or two to make add pizzazz to an ordinary meal, or mix'n'match a whole bunch of them for an eclectic smorgasbord of world cuisine.

Summary: Great, but perhaps impractical
Comment: This isn't so much a review as a caveat. While I have to agree that the photographs are incredible and the tidbits about the Caldicotts' travels are a nice touch, and that the recipes and pictures are mouth-watering, I'm not sure how much of this I'll actually make. Most of the dishes (single dishes, mind you) call for 15-20 ingredients. Fine if you run a big kitchen anyway or don't mind spending more time in the grocery store, but it's not what a beginning cook like myself is looking for.
I purchased this cookbook along with "The Vegetarian 5-Ingredient Gourmet", and while the latter isn't quite as glamorous and I can think of plenty to add to the recipes, I don't dirty all my galley pots preparing dinner.
I will definately be trying out the "Carri Coco Curry" recipe (a 24-ingredient recipe, including the garnish and curry mixture) on page 56, though!
