“No one in the last fifty years has influenced the West’s
understanding of Indian food like Madhur Jaffrey. Today, she is
still the ultimate authority. She has patiently shown us how to mix
spices, explained the regional differences of this vast cuisine,
and also provided shortcuts to preparing a myriad of dishes. She is
a towering figure in international gastronomy, serving as mentor
and inspiration to the countless writers and cooks who have come
after her. I remain in awe of her.” —Padma Lakshmi
“Perhaps the best Indian cookbook available in English.” —The New
York Times
