About The Author

With an emphasis on taste and quality Monica Bhide has included recipes that are delicious while healthier than some of the traditional dishes served frequently. I Love that! Good food with less guilt! I also love the format of the cookbook in which many of the sections are themed menus for different occasions and include all the recipes needed to make your meal a success.

Some of the mouth-watering dishes you'll find in this cookbook include: Spicy Coconut Tomato Soup, Baby Cupcakes, Mango and Cucumber Salad, Bird's nest salad, Shrimp in Coconut Milk, Bell peppers with cheese filling, Papaya Passion, Kashmiri, Oven baked Parathas, Chicken with butter and Cream Sauce, Pumpkin Halwa with Crepes, Lentil Dumplings in Yogurt Sauce, Dosa, Crab Curry, Shalgam Kebabs, Turkey Tandoori, Coconut Chutney Sandwiches and so many more!
