Summary

'An unbridled joy' Nigel Slater

WINNER OF THE OBSERVER FOOD MONTHLY'S BEST NEW COOKBOOK AWARD 2017
FROM THE FORTNUM & MASON COOKERY WRITER OF THE YEAR 2018

Meera Sodha reveals a whole new side of Indian food that is fresh, delicious and quick to make at home。 These vegetable-based recipes offer up a treasure trove of flavours, making the perfect gift for both vegetarians and meat-eaters

Here are surprising recipes for every day made using easy to find ingredients: mushroom and walnut samosas, oven-baked onion bhajis and beetroot and paneer kebabs。 There are familiar and classic Indian recipes like dals, curries and pickles, alongside less familiar ones using fresh seasonal British ingredients, like Brussels sprout thoran, Gardeners' Question Time pilau and green beans with cashew nuts and coconut。

And then there are showstoppers such as daily dosas with coconut potatoes, roasted cauliflower korma, sticky mango paneer skewers, wild mushroom upma and lime pickle rice with roast squash and red onion。 To finish, there's a chapter of luscious puddings like salted peanut and jaggery kulfi alongside carrot halwa and pistachio cake。

Very excited to try some of the paneer and bread recipes。Game changer: because she keeps talking about it, I soaked the rice before cooking it today。 Fluffiest rice ever (but the paneer tikka masala recipe wasn’t hers)。

Still exploring this book but these are my initial impressions- Meera Sodha uses a *lot* of oil and many of these recipes eg - 3 tbsp in a chickpea, spinach & tomato curry。There’s rather a lot of generalisations about England and English food too - snacks are processed and come from a machine, full of E numbers。。。 (mine don’t and aren’t) in contrasts to Gujarat where everything is fresh, every woman is a home cook and all is healthy (apart from the high level of oil and salt in some of her famil Still exploring this book but these are my initial impressions- Meera Sodha uses a *lot* of oil and many of these recipes eg - 3 tbsp in a chickpea, spinach & tomato curry。There’s rather a lot of generalisations about England and English food too - snacks are processed and come from a machine, full of E numbers。。。 (mine don’t and aren’t) in contrasts to Gujarat where everything is fresh, every woman is a home cook and all is healthy (apart from the high level of oil and salt in some of her family’s recipes 。。。) But there are some delicious sounding things。 I will definitely be cutting the level of oil and salt down。 。。。more

One of those cookbooks that I take out of the library, and then purchase because there are just too many fantastic recipes。While Sodha grew up in the English countryside to Indian parents, she has a taste for fresh veggies combined with Indian food - and the results are fantastic。 While some recipes are fussy (so many Indian recipes are), these are absolutely delicious。 Can't wait to cook more and more from this cookbook。 Tonight's dinner resulted in my husband eating FOURTHS。 Thank you, Meera S One of those cookbooks that I take out of the library, and then purchase because there are just too many fantastic recipes。While Sodha grew up in the English countryside to Indian parents, she has a taste for fresh veggies combined with Indian food - and the results are fantastic。 While some recipes are fussy (so many Indian recipes are), these are absolutely delicious。 Can't wait to cook more and more from this cookbook。 Tonight's dinner resulted in my husband eating FOURTHS。 Thank you, Meera Sodha。 。。。more

Started saving individual recipes on my phone, then realized I needed the entire book。 I will reassess the star designation once I have had the opportunity to cook more of the recipes。

So many amazing recipes!!

I want to make every single recipe in this book。 I love cooking and eating Indian food, and I really love that this cookbook is chockfull of recipes that are completely different than anything I’ve seen before。 I can’t wait to get cooking。

Fresh India is a vegetarian-only recipe book, and I liked it more than her previous recipe book, Made in India。 Meera Sodha shares her love for eggs with quite a romantic opening, citing an ancient Hindu text, "the cracking of an egg marked the start of the universe。 The shell became the mountains, the white became the oceans and the yolk the sun。" Whoa。 I'll never look at (the cracking of) eggs the same way again。 I also saved the recipe for Banana and Cardamom Buns, apparently a healthier take Fresh India is a vegetarian-only recipe book, and I liked it more than her previous recipe book, Made in India。 Meera Sodha shares her love for eggs with quite a romantic opening, citing an ancient Hindu text, "the cracking of an egg marked the start of the universe。 The shell became the mountains, the white became the oceans and the yolk the sun。" Whoa。 I'll never look at (the cracking of) eggs the same way again。 I also saved the recipe for Banana and Cardamom Buns, apparently a healthier take of deep-fried Mangalorean banana puris。 I have only recently been introduced to Mangalorean cuisine, and while the journey ended a little abruptly I am nonetheless thankful for this little introduction and discovery。 That said, it still feels like quite an unfinished business; I shall make it a point to see what is this sweet Mangalore bun all about one day, hopefully soon。 。。。more

I love this book。 I bought it because I realised that my other book with Indian recipes was full of meat/fish dishes, which I don't eat (anymore)。 The explanations are easy to follow and the recipes taste from wonderful to great。 Today I finally tried Meera Sodha’s vegan recipe for aubergine fesenjan。 «Finally» because it took me a while to organise the pomegranate molasses, I wanted it organic, so the easiest way was to make it on my own (from bottled juice though, I'm not suicidal ;-): it was I love this book。 I bought it because I realised that my other book with Indian recipes was full of meat/fish dishes, which I don't eat (anymore)。 The explanations are easy to follow and the recipes taste from wonderful to great。 Today I finally tried Meera Sodha’s vegan recipe for aubergine fesenjan。 «Finally» because it took me a while to organise the pomegranate molasses, I wanted it organic, so the easiest way was to make it on my own (from bottled juice though, I'm not suicidal ;-): it was heavenly!

Cookbook。 As good as Made in India。 It is great to have more recipes!

Debby

It's a great book, but I wish there are more illustrations or photographs of the actual dishes。 It's kind of hard to imagine what is the ideal look of the dishes。 It's a great book, but I wish there are more illustrations or photographs of the actual dishes。 It's kind of hard to imagine what is the ideal look of the dishes。 。。。more

I forgot how good this book is! Bee Wilson listed it as one of her four books she is currently using and it reminded me how much I love the recipes, so I’ve taken it off the shelf。 It’s stained from all the times I’ve used it。 The recipes are relatively straightforward。 There’s the odd difficult to get ingredient,mid you don’t have an Asian grocer near you, but otherwise most ingredients will be to hand。 This is authentic tasty food which you’ll cook again and again。 Well worth the small investm I forgot how good this book is!

A great cookbook with such a wide variety of traditional Indian dishes which you won’t find at your local takeaway。 Simple, easy to follow instructions with only simple utensils required for most。 I’ve made a lot of these multiple times and they always turn out fantastic! Don’t get me wrong, there’s a few that I wasn’t a fan of, but that’s personal preference; not Meera’s fault!

LemontreeLime

Can’t wait to try these, such great ideas!

Marina

This beautiful book bursts with recipes that celebrate vegetables and the author’s connections with India, Lincolnshire and Islington。 Yesterday, I used one of the recipes to make the most delicious aubergine and pea curry , using only items that I already had in the house。 How often does that happen…。to be able to follow a recipe exactly without any prior planning? This is a keeper。

Aja Marsh

really enjoyed the diversity of recipes in here and felt approachable。 have already made a couple of things--yum!

Vegetarian recipes from the Author of Made in India。 I love her clear and personal writing style, and her recipes are easy to follow。

A lot of recipes look gorgeous and I'd happily eat them if someone else made them。 Found the condiment and dessert chapters the most accessible。 Will be trying the pineapple raita。 A lot of recipes look gorgeous and I'd happily eat them if someone else made them。 Found the condiment and dessert chapters the most accessible。 Will be trying the pineapple raita。 。。。more

Really good vegeterian recipes! Helps so much for thinking about meat and chicken free foods! Remarkable。 I also like the back story to her recipes。

Corwin

The author manages to reach new heights of vegetarian cooking while still including plenty of week night meals and side dishes。 Amazing book, photos, design, everything was on point。

Čista petica iako još nisam ništa skuhala po receptima iz knjige。 Obavezna literatura za vegetarijance i dobrodošla inspiracija za sve koje žele dodati malo boje na svoje tanjure。 Većina sastojaka koji su potrebni za pripremu su lako dostupni, a količina začina se lako može prilagoditi da jelo ne bude suviše egzotično。

Beka

Though I didn't love this as much as her previous book, I'll still read any other cookbooks she comes out with。 This one just used a lot of ingredients that I would not really be able to easily get my hands on。 Though I didn't love this as much as her previous book, I'll still read any other cookbooks she comes out with。 This one just used a lot of ingredients that I would not really be able to easily get my hands on。 。。。more

I am a mangalorean , made the plantain curry , as I was making it - I felt apprehensive , in all my years I have never come across such a dish 。。I continued 。。 thought the end result will be great but the end result was horrible , I returned the book the next day and saved 35 dollars , bought the forks over knives cookbook and made Channa saag instead - it was finger licking good。。

Already added to my Amazon cart, along with a bunch of new spices。

Wonderful inspiring recipes。Found reading book like listening to a good friend sharing secrets。 Beautiful mix of colour and taste。 Loved this woman。

A well done indian cookbook focusing mainly on southern style foods。 I found many useful recipes。

I love cooking from Meera's books。 I've probably had a go at 20 recipes from her last 2 books which is a high strike rate。 Highly recommended。 I love cooking from Meera's books。 I've probably had a go at 20 recipes from her last 2 books which is a high strike rate。 Highly recommended。 。。。more
