All Dhal’d Up by Kamini Pather
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received a copy of this book from Penguin Random House South Africa in exchange for a review.
When it comes to cookbooks, I have a problem that few people seem to understand.
Firstly I can never find Indian cookbooks. At least, not ones that reflect the way my family actually cooks. Secondly, there’s never a cookbook that is truly simple. I have little to no skill in the kitchen, and the Indian method of “just add some of this” doesn’t work for me.
I own four beginner cookbooks and all I’ve learned from them is various ways to make eggs.
So when I saw that Kamini Pather had a cookbook, I felt a spark of hope. Surely, she would get it?
The book was delivered two hours ago, and I devoured it eagerly. I’m a fan! There are several familiar recipes that are easy to follow, along with exciting fusion dishes I can’t wait to try. Finally- a cookbook that gets me!
