Media Reviews
Indian cooking with an eye on fat content is the underlying theme to this lavishly illustrated book. With a reputation for being on the greasy side, Indian cookery experts Shehzad Husain and Manisha Kanani, set out to provide a healthy alternative to the ghee-ridden dishes so often encountered in Indian restaurants. All the favourites are found within - kormas, baltis, vindaloos - alongside more eclectic dishes such as baked potato with spicy cottage cheese and lamb with apricots. Nutritional notes accompany each recipe along with tips on what best to serve as accompaniments. Don't be put off by the healthy title - all the recipes are truly tasty and attractively presented but with the added bonus of being good for you. - Lucy Watson
