Many of us love the flavours of Indian food but are intimidated by the idea of cooking it ourselves. Amisha Gurbani teaches home cooks to embrace spice and build dishes that play with sweet, spicy, sour and savoury flavours. Inspired by the spices and dishes of her native India and the produce-forward cooking style of her adopted home in California' s Bay Area, Gurbani' s culinary creations are remarkable for their unique flavour pairings. Mumbai Modern offers 100 recipes, complete with Gurbani' s stunning photographs, including breakfasts (whole wheat pancakes with ghee-sauteed banana and cardamom); appetisers and salads (lentil fritters and yoghurt sauce); mains (masala veggie burgers); bread, rice and snacks (poori, roti, panzanella); sauces, dips and jams (avocado cilantro pepita sauce); desserts (blood orange and hibiscus tart) and drinks (kumquat ginger cinnamon whisky sour).
Amisha' s cooking makes me insanely jealous. Her recipes effortlessly weave together the exquisite vegetarian food of Gujarat, the cosmopolitan excitement of Mumbai' s eateries, and the freshness and vibrancy of California cuisine. She' s a cook' s cook, distilling generations of knowledge, instinct, and craft into each dish that ends up always being the best version of it I' ve ever tried. There are a handful of trusted cookbooks in my collection that I go back to over and over again, and Mumbai Modern will easily join that list. --Chef Meherwan Irani, owner of Spicewalla and the Chai Pani Restaurant Group This is a book that pulls at your heartstrings and makes you want to read more and then stock your pantry with everything Indian; sharpen your knives and put on your comfortable shoes because you' re going to want to cook from cover to cover. Every sensuous recipe has a little twist that gives you an ' ah-ha' moment like the Chickpea Flour Crepes with Carrot and Purple Cabbage Salad and the Iced Masala Chai Latte with Lavender Foam, to name a few. Amisha has a real hit with Mumbai Modern. This is the cookbook I want on my cookbook shelf and the one I will go to again and again. --Joanne Weir, chef, author, and host of PBS' s Plates and Places
