ReviewsWhether fresh or dried, vegetables are major players in Asma's Indian Kitchen by London chef/restaurateur Asma Khan. With a minimum of peeling and chopping, and the judicious addition of spices, familiar vegetables become exciting food in Khan's book. Many of her recipes start with whole spices added to a hot pan until the oils trapped in the spice seeds are released. A quick grind in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle, and these fragrant seasonings are ready to flavor the likes of mashed potatoes, sautAed eggplant, chopped carrots, cauliflower florets or butternut squash. Khan includes concise and helpful directions in 80-plus recipes for meat, fish, vegetables and more ' The book is divided into dishes for two, family dishes and fancy party cooking.

SynopsisFEED YOUR SOUL WITH ASMA KHAN'S COLLECTION OF AUTHENTIC INDIAN RECIPES ASMA KHAN STARS IN NETFLIX'S AWARD-WINNING SERIES CHEF'S TABLE Award-winning restaurant Darjeeling Express began life as a dinner party with friends; Indian food lovingly cooked from family recipes that go back generations. In this book, Asma reveals the secret to her success, telling her immigrant's story and how food brought her home. The recipes pay homage to her royal Mughlai ancestry and follow the route of the Darjeeling Express train from the busy streets of Bengal, through Calcutta, where she grew up, and along the foothills of the Himalayas to Hyderabad. Platters of dishes boasting texture and intense flavor encourage you to gather for a traditional dawaat (feast). Starting with simple midweek Feasts for Two, Asma then reveals the way to quick and easy cooking with less spice for Family Feasts. There are Feasts for Friends, for when you want to show off a little, and Celebratory Feasts. Many of the recipes are vegetarian, there are sweet treats and drinks, too, and all feature alongside lesser-known recipes and stories unique to Asma's family. This is more than just a collection of delicious and accessible recipes, it is a celebration of heritage, culture, community and quality. This is Asma's Indian Kitchen.
