This is one of my most used cookbooks. I like the simplicity and ease of variability of these recipies. I also like that most recipies are sized for one or two people, making it perfect for single cooks. I have tried other Indian cookbooks before and found most often that for daily meals, there was too much time involved in the preparation. Not so here.
I would recommend this book to anyone interested in altering their eating habits and relationship to food. The meals are filling, but not overfilling, and seem quite healthy on average. Of the recipies I have tried only one was too bitter to my taste.
The best are now standard in my weekly menu: beets with yogurt, sweet potatoes with basil, pumkin soup, red lentils with ginger, braised peppers, curried rice, various dal recipies, lassi and others.
This is not a great book with which to learn ayurvedic technique, however. There is some information at the start of the book but it was not particularly useful and I frequently ignore the variations the authors recommend for my type.
