Madhur Jaffrey's Indian Cooking

By Madhur Jaffrey
Barron's Educational Series - 1983

Probably my first Indian cookbook, bought after I saw bits of the series on the BBC. Much used, with many favorites. Sometimes tending to be too oily or salty, but this is easily remedied. Quick list of favorites (noted in front of book):
Gujarati-style green beans, p102
Raita, p162
Lentils with garlic & onion, p124
Spicy baked chicken, p71
Rice with peas, p149
Simple buttery rice with onions, p145
Seviyan ki kheer, p192
Spicy green beans, p103
Aromatic yellow rice, p153
Onion relish, p174
Yogurt with eggplant, p164
Lemony chicken with fresh coriander, p73
Carrot & onion salad, p171
