Description

Introducing the definitive guide to recreating British Indian Restaurant favourites from the comfort of your own home!

Lockdown saw a surge in people trying to recreate restaurant flavours at home – and now Brits want more inspiration as they get bolder in the kitchen.

In Curry Compendium, Richard Sayce expertly combines both volumes of his best-selling, Gourmand award-winning Indian Restaurant Curry at Home books, with a sprinkling of new recipes, to create the ultimate guide to cooking excellent British Indian Restaurant food in your own kitchen.

Richard Sayce, the man behind Misty Ricardo’s Curry Kitchen, is renowned by his many fans for quality recipes, attention to detail and his affable style. Having sold more than 50,000 copies of his first books, and amassing over six million views of his recipes on YouTube, there is a huge appetite for this new magnus opus packed with mouth-watering, easy-to-follow recipes.

Curry Compendium includes starters, side dishes, curries, rice and bread, along with a generous portion of traditional and street food style recipes. Readers benefit from supporting YouTube tutorials for the majority of recipes, each with a QR code to scan with a smartphone/tablet to watch online instantly. 

Research from Bray Leino points to lockdown leading to an overwhelming rise in home cooking: 55% said they are ‘cooking more from scratch as I’m spending more time at home.’ Interestingly, the group most likely to agree with this statement was 18-34 year olds. Their 2019 report identified this group as most likely to eat fast food and use ready meals, so we’re seeing a huge behaviour shift that will impact for years to come.

Featured Reviews

Misty Ricardo's Curry Compendium is perfect for anyone who wants to start cooking BIR style food at home and is unsure of where to start. Everything is described in fantastic detail, from the basic ingredients and spices, to cookware, how to make the perfect base gravy, upscaling ingredients and techniques to make the dishes as authentic as possible.

I've been following Misty's Youtube channel and creating his recipes at home for a couple of years now and find the previous books to be indispensible. Unlike a lot of cookbooks that are mainly artfully shot images and not much else, this is full of amazing recipes and will explain all you need to know. I'd recommend this to everyone who is underwhelmed by supermarket alternatives to Indian takeaway food.

I can't wait to try some of the new recipes that aren't featured in the previous two books.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the chance to review Misty Ricardo's Curry Compendium.
