by Shalabh Prasad (Author)
A comprehensive and entertaining exploration of the foods of India, told through a foodie's experiences, with delightfully quirky facts and stories.
Indian food is the aggregate of many regional cuisines.

Over 400 dishes are covered, including not only ingredients and methods of cooking, but also associated interesting facts and anecdotes. For example: why a fish dish is called Bombay Duck; the misconception that Vindaloo means vinegar and potatoes; the special kabab created for an ageing and toothless nawab; how multiple elements in Chaat, the Indian street foods, combine to create a symphony of tastes; and many more. With beautiful photographs, FoodSutra is an essential, easy-to-read reference on Indian food.
