I bought this book from Fishpond last year. This book doesn't have any fancy and glossy photographs but book is very informative and full of lip-smacking recipes. The author has described and explained everything so beautifully! Though, I'm vegetarian by birth and this book includes non-veg recipes too but I'm still happy with this book. If you love Indian spices and dishes, then this book is highly recommended!

This cookbook is full of every curry you could think of making (and more). While not a vegetarian recipe book, the majority of curries within are vegetarian - with separate paneer, legume, and vegetable curry sections as well as poultry, beef lamb and pork, and seafood sections. The legume and vegetable sections are the largest by far.
What's good about the book is the section introducing spices, with a number of different spice blends described early on, which can then be used for different curries throughout the book. I also enjoy the personal touch given to the recipes, with the author giving some background on his experience with certain curries. The book is also accessible to the Western cook, with less usual ingredients explained (written for the US market, I think).
