Thanks so much to NetGalley for the free Kindle book. My review is voluntarily given, and my opinions are my own.

I requested this cookbook for my family, and not at all for myself. I don't like spicy foods, and although I am sure all Indian food aren't spicy, the title of this book would definitely make me think all or most of the recipes are. Also, I'm at the white girl spice level, so it doesn't take much.

Absolutely loved that there is a picture for each recipe (sometimes multiple pictures). I think that I might try making some of the different breads for myself, and I know my family members will try multiple different recipes in here!

Definitely would recommend this cookbook!

My mouth is WATERING.

I really enjoyed the stories throughout, and the simplicity of the recipes. The pictures were beautiful and told a wonderful tale.
I do wish it seemed a little more authentic; I appreciate that he brought it back to where many people would probably be more comfortable making these recipes, but some of them I was hoping would be like the recipes I get when I order from an authentic restaurant.
If that's a me problem I totally understand, but I do wish he co-authored with an Indian chef to ensure that authenticity.

Overall, though, it was beautifully crafted and I am genuinely excited to try these recipes! I encourage everyone to take a look at these recipes and try something new!!!

Accessible grouping of recipes. Attractive photography (Albeit poorly laid out); not interested in double page spreads with a single photo and no recipes. Too much filler (between extra photo spreads and rambling intros) rather than focusing on the recipes


Layout and fonts very difficult to read although this could be a problem with the NetGalley reader on PC and phone so not considering these factors in my rating.
