The best thing about Madhur Jaffrey’s cooking is her wealth of culinary experience. Of Indian heritage she was raised in London, married a Southern-American and calls herself a New Yorker. Ms. Jaffrey, the author of dozens of cookbooks, including the classic Indian Cooking, is among today's most influential and authoritative food writers. She has also authored books on the cooking traditions of Mexico, Korea, Japan, and vegetarians. The fabulous, and unfortunately out-of-print, Easy East/West Menus for Family and Friends, reflects all of her unique and varied life experiences and brings a plethora of never-fail simple meals to the table. Be sure to purchase it for yourself or share it with a dear friend. Favorite Recipes: Salad of Watercress and Seasoned Apples, Shrimp in a Pink Sauce, Rice with Peas and Carrots and Flavored with Cardamom, and Fresh Orange Slices with a Gingery Yogurt Sauce. This is an all-time favorite book that we love having on our shelf, turn to often, and makes a wonderful gift for a special friend.
