Excellent, authentic vegetarian Indian (3/3 people found this helpful)
A wonderful cookbook filled with authentic vegetarian and vegan Indian cuisine. A great source for rich, satisfying meatless dishes that prove that adhering to a cruelty-free diet does not mean eating bland, tasteless food. A standard in our household.
This is an excellent instructional book. (6/6 people found this helpful)
I taught myself to cook Indian cuisine from this book. Although I now own a number of vegetarian cook books, I find myself returning to "World of the East.." again and again. I found the glossary of exotic ingredients extremely helpful. One of her recipes, apricot chutney, is a mainstay in my holiday gift baskets. The chutney has even been mistaken for "Major Grey's" before. I would recommend this book to anyone with a little cooking experience who wants to broaden their cooking horizons.
excellent vegetarian cookbook: flavorful, varied (6/6 people found this helpful)
When I lived in a household with cooking shared among 7 adults, and over 5 linear feet of cookbooks, over half our meals came from this book. She's accessible and reliable: the worse recipe we tried was merely "good", and most were very good to excellent! Most recipes are easy, although some are only for the ambitious. My only complaint: it's a paperback, so the binding will fall apart from the heavy use you're likely to give this cookbook.
The best vegetarian cookbook that I have ever used. (1/1 people found this helpful)
Madhur Jaffrey, through her cookbook, allows the average and not so average cook to experience a myriad of tastes that of are eastern origin. Even the most staunch meat-eater will agree that these recipes place vegetarian cooking in an elite class. Buy the book and see for yourself!

A wonderful change from the blandness of New York's vegetarian food. Try the very spicy delicious chick peas, and lentils with garlic and tomatoes. It's tops.
