The best cook book ever!!!
I am not much of a cook; but this book has turned me into some sort of expert on indian cooking. I bought this book after my brother in law highly recommended it. They said that the food they make from it is better than the food they get in indian restaurants!!!

I have made a few dishes from the book and I must say that I agree with them.

The hard bit about this cook book is getting hold of all the ingredience. I live close to a busy highstreet that has lots of Asian shops selling all sorts of spieces and the rest etc. I had to go into 5 different shops to get all the spices I needed for just one dish. Tesco in saved the day and I was able to get the last remaining spice. Here are some of the not so usual spices...fennel seeds, cumin, cardamom ground, coriander, tumeric, tararind concentrate & garam masala.

The book has full large colour pictures of all the dishes so that you know exactly what you are going to make. If you are like me, I want to use a cook book that have lots of pictures.

The instructions are very simple to follow.

I have not used as suggested "gee" in any of my cooking as "gee" is a high fat product and I am working on loosing weight. I am also using fromage frais instead of cream. The food still taste fantastic and my partner who is not on a diet also loves the food.

The book has a chapter on the following dishes -->vegetarian, fish, chicken, meat, seafood, bread, sweets, drinks, soups and snacks.

I am glad that I have found out about this range of cook books. I will definately be buying other Woman's Weekly books this year.

Excellent!!!
I've tried many dishes from this cook book and the result were very good. Great phtographs of the dishes and very clear step-by-step cooking preparation.I'm not an Indian but I become an expert for Indian cooking, thanks to this excellent cook book.
Ingredients used are easy to find (common) and cooking method are not complicated. The result of the dish is not too pungent either, which is exactly what I love about it. Well done!!!
