‘Madhur Jaffrey's 'Indian Cookery' is as fresh and relevant today as when it was first published. As a child I grew up eating her recipes, cooked by my mother, reading the fascinating chapter introductions at the breakfast table when only slightly older. Her writing and recipes are as inspirational and practical for readers new to Indian food as they are for confident cooks - a kitchen classic’ * Rukmini Iyer *
