Book Description
Frontline India (Review of the authors' first book, Art of South Indian Cooking)
(They) take pride in the fact that most South Indian dishes are not only delicious but remarkably nutritious as well.
Product Description:
After numerous cooking
demonstrations and TV appearances, along with letters and comments from readers, the authors have put together a brand new collection of healthy recipes. With an emphasis on the famed Chettinad cooking tradition of southern India, these 197 mostly
vegetarian recipes will allow home cooks to create fabulous exotic fare like Masala Dosa with Coconut Chutney, Pearl Onion and Tomato Sambhar, Chickpea and Bell Pepper Poriyal, and Eggplant Masala Curry. These easy-to-prepare dishes are exceptionally
delicious and nutritious, featuring wholesome vegetables and legumes flavored with delicate spices. Each of these low-fat, low-calorie recipes includes complete nutritional analysis.
Also included are sample menus of complementary dishes and
innovative suggestions for integrating South Indian dishes into traditional Western meals. A section on the varieties and methods of preparation for dals (a lentil dish that is a staple of the cuisine), a multilingual glossary of spices and ingredients,
and 16 pages of color photographs make this book a clear and concise introduction to the healthy, delicious cooking of South India.
