      I really enjoyed this. It uses mainly store-cupboard ingredients and is fairly simple to prepare in comparison to other more elaborate tikka masalas. I like that the author provides a few different options to make it lighter or more indulgent - I always omit the butter and use yogurt rather than cream, and it's still delicious. As with other chicken recipes I've successfully made a veggie version by roasting cauliflower in the suggested marinade and serving the crispy florets on top of the sauce. Yum!

Publishers Text

Anjali Pathak's first memories are of making chapatis with her grandmother who founded the family business, doing her homework on the kitchen table as her mother presented her with dish upon dish to test and her father's favourite phrase - 'can we get that into a jar?' Now Anjali draws upon her family secrets in a beautiful collection of authentic Indian dishes and modern creations that are perfect for all cooks. Delve into heartfelt stories that bring Indian food to life, learn top tips for foolproof results, master classics and learn how a touch of spice can add a contemporary twist. Each of Anjali's secrets will help you create Indian food at its best - loved by generation upon generation. The recipes included vary from light snacks, such as the Bombay nuts, Spiced chicken wings and Stuffed paneer bites, to bigger bites like Chilli beef with black pepper, Vegetable biryani, or the classic Chicken tikka masala. Then, for dessert, who could resist the Baby apple tarte tatin with spiced caramel, Roast hazelnut & cardamom ice cream, or Decadent chocolate truffles?
