The
'love affair' with Indian food started for self-taught home cook
Simon Daley the first time he tasted his future mother-in-law's
chicken curry. The result, apart from marrying Roshan's daughter that
is, was a book of recipes from the family's Gujerati rootes to modern
day adaptation in UK.
The
beautifully illustrated book sets out on its journey by explaining
the basics, much like most Indian cookery books. The section on
breads is particularly interesting which is unsurprising as Roshan's
chapattis are said to be legendary.
The book is
nothing new to collectors of good Indian cookery books but excellent
in its own right. "A wonderful collaboration - a faithful record
of the instinctive cooking that goes on in a typical Indian
household" Vivek Singh, Executive Chef at The Cinnamon Club, London.
