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.

Gujaratis have perhaps truly perfected the art of vegetarian cooking! Using a little intergrity, they have succeeded in transforming the simplest ingredients into mouth watering delicacies. Gujarati cuisine is a subtle blend of flavours and textures. All the three main regions of Gujarat have their own unique culinary styles. A Guajarati meal served in a thali is an experience by itself. Beginning with cumin spiked buttermilk, followed by fluffy rotis, accompanied by a variety of lentils (kathols), vegetables, curds, pickles, mithais and farsans finished with rice or khichdi. Apart from pampering the palate, it is also a well balanced meal. Most Guajarati recipes were traditionally handed down from mother to daughter and a very few attempts were made to document them. In the process much has been lost . at the same time as a result of improvisations made by each generation to suit their changing tastes and also to adopt to their lifestyles, there have also been many gains. This book is an attempt to document the classic recipes so that it can help both the inexperienced beginner as well as the connoisseur.

Idlis and Dosas are essentially South Indian snacks. However, due to their popularity, they are now available almost everywhere in India. The humble dosa has put South India on every culinary hot spot of the world. This book is a small but delightful collection of recipes which are a gateway to a whole new world of idlis and dosas. The Corn Idli, Soya Dosa and Tricolour Uttapam will surely amaze you. I have also included recipes of mouth-watering Appam and Appes as well as some accompaniments without which South Indian snacks are incomplete. My personal favourite is the Corn Sambhar which is made without any dal. Surprise your family and friends with the inspiring variety of dishes like the South Indian Sizzler and Dosa Lasagne made using left-over idlis and dosas. Every recipe is double tested and quantified by me and my research team so as to enable you to get the best results every time. This book is dedicated to all my readers whose love for new recipes continues to inspire me to create them.
