In India, cooking is considered an art. Mothers usually begin to teach their daughters very young in life, passing down family recipes by show-and-tell. Diverse, delicious and not as difficult to cook as you might think, Indian food is among the leading cuisines of the world. With every state, city, and even every home having its recipes for thousands of dishes, you can imagine how the variety is mind-boggling. Contrary to popular belief, Indian food is not just about curry, chillies, and oil. There is probably no other cuisine that includes as many healthy and diverse vegetables and spices. Welcome to my cookbook of family passed secret recipes.
