Author Description

The second in the Real Cookery series from Absolute features recipes from the leading Indian restaurants in Great Britain, which, in effect, means the leading Indian restaurants in the world. The wonderful range and quality of Indian restaurants in the United Kingdom has even resulted in two of the most highly regarded receiving stars from the indefatigably Francophile Michelin Guide. Traditional, regional and modern influences are all represented here, making this one of the most important books to be published on Indian food for a long while. From Kerala to Gujerat, from Goa to Kashmir, the huge range and differing style of Indian cuisine will amaze all those who thought that Indian food was just Chicken Biriani, Prawn Madras, and Rogan Josh. A true spice-lover’s delight. Meg Avent is a food editor with a discerning eye and palate and a love of good restaurants. She is the editor of the acclaimed Real Pub Food and lives in Bath, England.
