Indian Kitchens

A book that perfectly captures the vibrancy and deliciousness of Indian food. Wonderful. * Gary Lineker *Kitchen conversations with home cooks from all over India. The recipes are pure gold. I love this book. * Diana Henry *This is the cookbook I have been waiting for – saturated with the vast ingenuity of real Indian home cooking and Roopa’s brilliant writing. It’s an instant classic. * Ravinder Bhogal *Not just a magisterial work on regional Indian cookery, but a deeply personal and passionate one too. A thoroughly modern classic. * Tom Parker-Bowles *At last, the talented home cooks of India are given their due. Roopa Gulati is one of the great recipe writers working today and Indian Kitchens is her best cookbook yet. She always tells you exactly the details you need to make a dish sing. A book to treasure. * Bee Wilson *There’s an extraordinary life’s experience, intelligence, and pleasure in these pages. What an addition Roopa’s book is to our understanding of India’s richly varied cuisines. * Sheila Dillon *Warm, generous and chatty, Roopa has opened the door to Indian cooking for me with inspiring recipes that really work. I want to make everything in this book. * Fiona Beckett *Indian Kitchens is an absolute treasure; you are in for a real treat, as dear Roopa brilliantly unfolds the diverse, vibrant Indian regional home cooking, giving voice to the home cooks, taking readers on a culinary journey through fascinating India. Every page, every recipe is a visual and scrumptious feast. Indian Kitchens is destined to be a classic; the sort of book you will want to snuggle and read on a comfy sofa, as well as whetting your appetite, to rush to the kitchen to cook from it. * Ozlem Warren *I really do want to cook my way through every recipe in this book. Indian Kitchens is so generously warm-hearted, Roopa Gulati so cosily evocative a storyteller, and the recipes she unearths so invitingly do-able and dazzlingly full of flavour and promise. * Nigella Lawson *

Roopa Gulati is all about making the most of Indian spices in your own kitchen. Brought up in Cumbria, she crossed continents and worked as a chef in New Delhi’s kitchens, where she cooked in huge hotels, street bazaars, palace kitchens, TV studios and on stoves across India. Now based in London, Roopa continues to create recipes, write about food and share her skills with fans of regional Indian cooking. Indian Kitchens is her second book.
