Produktbeschreibung

Indian-ish is a cookbook that blends Indian flavors with American culinary influences through innovative, approachable recipes. The book highlights a family‑level, playful approach to cooking, featuring dishes like Roti Pizza, Tomato Rice with Crispy Cheddar, and Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Green Pea Chutney, as well as a salty-sweet “Indian Gatorade” limeade. It mixes practical weeknight dinners with inventive hybrids that reflect Priya Krishna’s family stories and cultural crossover. Acclaimed critics have recognized it as a standout release in Spring 2019, noting its readable storytelling, humor, and vivid illustrations. The author’s mother, Ritu, taught herself to cook after moving to the U.S., combining childhood Indian flavors with influences from travel, TV shows, and American favorites. The book also features original illustrations by Maria Qamar (Hatecopy) and aims to be both a source of tasty, doable meals and an engaging, relatable read about family life and culinary experimentation.
