Recipes From My Indian Kitchen: Traditional & modern recipes for delicious home-cooked food by Nitisha Patel

A collection of inviting Indian recipes to cook at home, including street food and snacks, curries and rice, and the all-important chutneys and raitas, as well as lightly spiced desserts.

Magical spice powders, sizzling dried whole spices, noisy popping saucepans, aromatic smells, colorful foods… this is what sums up great home-cooked Indian food. In this book, Nitisha walks you through a myriad of spices to understand how each one adds flavour, as well as how they complement each other for different dishes. The excitement, freshness, and snack-friendly appeal of street food leads to an explosive mixture of flavours in recipes for Fish Pakoras, Smokin’ Fiery Chicken Wings, Deep-fried Spiced Potato, Samosa Chaat, and Dhokla Muffins.

The beauty of curry is that nothing defines what makes a good curry—recipes vary meaning that the possibilities are endless. Nitisha’s recipes for curry include Keralan Shrimp Curry, Uncle Rambo’s Goat Curry, Paneer Kadhai, and Gosht Aloo Saag Masala. Celebratory dishes are also here, with Masala Grilled Lobster, Tandoori Spatchcock Poussin, and Hariyali Salmon. While vegetarian dishes are great as sides and entrées: try a variety of dhals, Channa Masala, and Pili Pili Chips. And if all that wasn’t feast enough, finish up with some sweet treats, such as Pistachio and Rose Water Ice Cream, and Mango and Mint Kulfi. (more…)

Otsumami: Japanese small bites & appetizers: Over 70 recipes to enjoy with drinks

Otsumami is the Japanese term given to snacks and simple dishes, designed to be eaten alongside a drink. (“Tsumamu” means to grab something with your fingers or chopsticks so any foods that can be eaten easily in this way came to be known as “otsumami.”)

They are common at izakaya bars, pubs, and at house parties in Japan—even if you are at home having a snack with your evening drink, you are still enjoying otsumami! There are countless delicious flavour pairings to be enjoyed and included here are small bites and dishes to tempt everyone, from existing devotees of Japanese food to newcomers keen to discover more.

Popular ingredients such as dashi, ponzu, miso, soy, teriyaki, and more, all make an appearance in a myriad of mouth-watering morsels including dips, pickles, salads, gyoza and tempura, sushi and sashimi, plus beautifully presented meat, fish, vegetarian, and vegan plates. Also included is a basic guide to Japanese beverages, and deliciously inventive cocktail recipes. (more…)
