MENUS AND MEMORIES FROM PUNJAB
10 TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION
More classic favorites from the Punjabi kitchen with 10
new chapters and dozens of new recipes!
At the heart of this cookbook-memoir is the story of two women, a
Punjabi villager and her American daughter-in-law, and the lives they built
together. More than an exceptional guide to India’s most popular cuisine,
this is also the intimate saga of a Punjabi family told through the food that
has sustained and comforted them through the years.
Each chapter features a family story along with recipes for a full meal,
from appetizers, entrees, and sides to desserts. Ayurvedic principles and
the health benefits of spices are the cornerstones of these recipes, and all
are clearly marked vegan, vegetarian and non-vegetarian. The thirty-two
menus feature a wide-ranging array of foods—from hearty flatbreads and
a variety of healthful lentil dishes, to elegant Roast Leg of Lamb and Royal
Bread Pudding that have graced the tables of Maharajahs.
