Madhur Jaffrey's Illustrated Indian Cookery
Madhur Jaffrey
BBC Books, 1996
great book but not for the novice cook
+ Great book for people with culinary zeal
All the recipes I've tried have tasted great but some can be quite time consuming. The recipes are also not written in standard U.S. measurements. It always takes me a little time to figure out how much a litre is. But if you are willing to take the time it's a great cookbook.
