Authentic Indian Home Cooking Recipes by Betty Crocker - Easy & Delicious Indian Meals for Family Dinners & Cultural Celebrations

Fantastic Indian recipes. Most ingredients can be found at your local grocery stores. A few items are a little tougher to find, but those are more rare. Every recipe I have tried has turned out really well. Of the 100+ cookbooks I own, this is one with the dirtiest pages (from food splashes and hand-written notes), and the most recipes tried.One story to back-up the authenticity of the recipes: On one occasion, I had a large group of friends over for a potluck dinner. One of the dishes I had made was a favorite, easy yogurt rice pilaf from this book. One of the families was from India, and they brought their parents to the party. Half of their family arrived at one time, half a bit later - with the husband arriving separately from his wife and in-laws. When he tried the yogurt rice, he asked his wife if his mother-in-law had made it. As a non-Indian, I felt like this was a great testament to these recipes -- that the results could be so simiilar to those achieved by people who have been making recipes like these for their entire lives. I have stuck with the book ever since and would recommend it to absolutely anyone. Pictures are beautiful, instructions are clear. You can't go wrong with this book.
