Looking back on my formative years in Mumbai, I realised that every dish we cooked symbolised an occasion or a mood and I have created dishes and menus to reflect the four main moods we cook in: hungry, lazy, indulgent and celebratory. My mother strived to give us the best Indian home cooked meal every day of the week and this book will introduce just how to do this with healthy, easy to follow recipes. It's all part of my DNA and nothing gives me more pleasure than watching my friends and family tucking into a gorgeous curry. The scent of the spices brings a simple pleasure like no other. It's a heady mix and one that we rarely delve into in contemporary British cooking and in Indian Kitchen I share it all...the spice blends, the family recipes and the techniques.

MAUNIKA GOWARDHAN What really goes on in an Indian kitchen? What is eaten on a day to day basis? And how do Indians rustle up a healthy curry for an everyday meal when most people assume it takes forever to make one? In Indian Kitchen, Maunika Gowardhan shares quick, simple recipes made from easy-to-find ingredients that will suit any mood and occasion, from a comforting weeknight curry, to an impressive feast for family and friends. Indian Kitchen will inspire you to add Indian cooking into your weekly menu.
