Description

In this unusual cookbook, Jasleen organizes her menus around the weather and shows us how to make the most of each season by using what is plentiful to create tasty, low-fat dishes that are easy to prepare and far from time consuming.

In India, especially in those parts of it that enjoy a clear distinction between summer and winter, spring and monsoon, cuisines rely equally upon the seasonal availability of ingredients and received wisdom about what constitutes a healthy diet at a particular time of the year. In this unusual cookbook, Jasleen organizes her menus around the weather and shows us how to make the most of each season by using what is plentiful (and cheap) to create tasty, low-fat dishes that are easy to prepare and far from time consuming.

There are cool sharbets and soups for summer, sizzling kababs and grills for those cold winter nights, snacks and light picnic menus for spring, and a delectable selection of all-season menus that include recipes from different parts of the world including Egypt, Iran, the Far East and Europe, sometimes improvised to suit the Indian palate and the Indian kitchen.
