I am so glad I got this cookbook. After stocking up on the basic spices needed to cook Indian food, I\'ve been cooking 3 or 4 recipes a week from this book....all delicious! And getting easier and easier. Super healthy and really don\'t miss the meat, etc., because of the full flavor of these recipes. (But if you want, you can easily add different proteins instead of tofu or tempha.) Highly, highly recommend!!
