Cooking with my Indian mother in law Summary

Cooking with my Indian mother in law by Simon Daley

When keen, self-taught home cook Simon Daley tasted his future mother-in-law Roshan's chicken curry for the first time, he was smitten. Simon asked Roshan to teach him her vast personal collection of recipes and now, in their kitchen, a special friendship flourishes.

This unique book draws on the extensive repertoire of an exceptional home cook, including traditional dishes passed down from mother to daughter over centuries, from the family's Gujerati roots in India to modern adaptations for life in England today. This is real Indian home cooking with simple recipes and authentic results.

Stunning modern photography of Simon and Roshan cooking at home, with step-by-step sequences to illustrate the more unique techniques, complements the lively personal text. Over 100 recipes included.

About Simon Daley

Roshan Hirani is the eldest daughter of a large Indian family. From the age of 11 it was her job to cook for the family and she has amassed over 50 years of experience as an outstanding traditional Gujerati cook. Her chapatis are legendary. Simon Daley is Roshan's son-in-law, who has worked as a designer and art director specialising in cookery books for over 10 years. He is a passionate home cook, with a keen interest in the traditions and culture of food. His main interest in this book is to continue the centuries-long process of handing down accumulated wisdom from one generation to the next by recording his mother-in-law's family recipes.
