A brilliant selection of curry recipes from every corner of the
Indian subcontinent.

—Indian Express 'Though the concept of curries is common to most Indians, one is surprised at the amazing variety Rai has been able to present.'
—The Hindustan Times 'From a wide-ranging collection, Rai, a gastrophile by disposition, a gourmet cook by choice and a businessman by profession, has culled for this book some of the better-known recipes, some from his personal repertoire, some interesting innovations and some rare ones he went to great lengths to
procure.'
