Summary: "Almost perfect!" says my Punjabi husband
Comment: I had tried serving Indian recipes I found on the Internet, and my husband, a Punjabi who relishes his food, would politely eat them. The first time I made Ms. Jaffrey's "everyday" Chicken in Fried Onion Sauce, he turned to me with a big smile on his face and says "it's almost perfect - I would never know this was not prepared by a born-Indian!"
Well - that's all the proof I needed! The only consistent complaint we have about the book is that the pulses (grains and legumes) are quite bland. That may be how the majority of Indians eat them, but in my husband's community, everything is highly seasoned. I've had to adjust all of those recipes for him.
One caution about the previous edition if you decide to buy it used is that occassionally you'll find a step missing in the procedural part of the recipe. You'll get to the end of the recipe and find there is an ingredient left over that's not made it into the pot - like the meat, for instance! I recommend you read all recipes carefully before starting so you can spot ommissions and strategize around them. This approach will also help you plan all the prep steps - measuring and chopping ingredients.

Summary: Comes packed with dishes which will prove exciting
Comment: Indian Cooking updates a prior Jaffrey classic introduction to Indian cooking, providing new recipes, brand-new color photos, and chapters on all the dishes of India. From a Kashmiri Red Lamb Stew to Chicken in Red Sweet Pepper Sauce, Indian Cooking comes packed with dishes which will prove exciting to both newcomers and seasoned Indian cooks.

Summary: Can't believe I found it in a USED book store!
Comment: What a gem of a cookbook! Not only could I not cook Indian food, I could not cook much of any food at all. That is, until I came across this Madhur Jaffrey book. The first recipe I tested was the lamb with spinach. My husband was shell-shocked at the authentic Indian flavor (and my seemingly sudden ability to cook!) The recipes are written in very plain language, and many lovely Indian spices (which can frequently be found nowadays at the local supermarket) such as turmeric and garam masala are included. If you have any interest in eating and/or cooking Indian food, you will not be disappointed. Thank you, Ms. Jaffrey!
