India is a vast and varied land, and not surprisingly, the variation and diversity is reflected in different styles and practices of cooking! Moreover, a significant proportion of the population being vegetarian, India has no equal in the field of vegetarian cooking. While changing times, there have been continuing changes in the kitchen size and its equipments on the one hand and in the taste and diet on other hand. This is naturally more pronounced in the urban areas where the housewife is hard-pressed for time, for space and for help. Elaborate cooking methods like those of the maharajas and used in mughlai and nawabi cuisines are just not practical anymore. Accordingly, my emphasis has been on simple recipes which can be prepared in reasonable time. Add whilst catering to the Indian weakness for rich dishes and sweets, I have borne in mind present day medical and nutritional advice and kept the extent of fats used in cooking to minimum. In this selection of desi recipes, I have tried to place before you dishes which are Indian but at the same time different from the usual run dishes which keep in mind the need of good health. Classic Indian recipes that you've always wanted to try, are listed in simple, easy to follow steps. Starting with appetizers to vegetables, dals, rice dishes, snacks and mouth watering muthias.

The aroma of pungent, delicious sauces the smoky stir-frying the fresh, colourful vegetables getting ready to be served the fragrance of rice and noodles. Ah! The pleasures of Chinese cooking! Ask any foodie to list his/her top three cuisines, and in all likelihood Chinese will figure in that list. Chinese cuisine today is loved globally for its spicy, colourful delicacies that can be prepared quickly. Interestingly, the Chinese believe that cooking is an art. A simple stir-fry, hearty rice, an elaborate vegetable or an exotic dessert - Chinese cuisine offers variety and taste for every palate. It is these aspects of Chinese that compelled me and my team to revisit my age-old, time-tested recipes and present them in a new style. After extensive research about Chinese cuisine, I present to you this new edition of Chinese Cooking, a collection of 57 recipes that are not only authentic, but also very appealing. Chinese cooking has always been quick, easy and fun as one gets to play with a variety of vegetables and sauces. Right from choosing the ingredients to presenting a dish, we have taken utmost care to maintain the authenticity of this versatile cuisine. I have divided the book into 7 sections viz. Soups Starters Rice, Noodles and Stir- fries Vegetable Dishes Accompaniments Desserts and Basic Recipes. Chinese food is as nutritious as it is tasty since it is cooked on a high flame for a short time, thereby retaining all the nutrients. Besides this, minimum usage of oil makes it healthy. Chinese meals are known for serving sauces along with food to further enhance the flavours as per individual liking. Hence accompaniments play an important role in Chinese cuisine. No meal is complete without a sweet treat. We ve included a range of Chinese treats. I really hope that you enjoy cooking these recipes and recreate the wonderful flavours of China for your loved ones.
