Prashad-Cooking with Indian Masters (Thoroughly Revised Edition, 2022)

Superb book. This book has it all an excellent guide to understanding Indian cuisine in a very simple format and truly a celebration of Indian cuisine and an odd to Indian chefs who have done wonders to innovate and show craftsmanship in other chapters. We used this in our college as a guide for Indian cooking. Thank you Mr. Jiggs Kalra. You are forever immortalised in this beautiful work of art which has been simplified for culinary students.

Nicebbook

JIggs Kalra has created a real masterpiece in this volume where he has collaborated with several master chefs from around India, and commemorated their choice recipes in his inimitable style, with precise ingredient lists and clear directions. A "must have" for any library of recipe books.

The book is full of knowledge and detailed information. I refer all people who interested in cooking

Engraved valuable recipe that anyone can blindly cook with any hesitation.

UPDATED: March 10, 2023 After a thorough flipping through the pages, I found additional errors I had missed earlier. Mostly typos, for example "gbee" should be "ghee" [clarified butter]. I don't know what is going on or who is proofreading the master manuscripts from the original 1986 version. These errors and typos SHOULD NOT be part of the "Thorough Revised 2022 Version." I was informed by a representative at Allied Publishing that when US or UK customers order Prashad, the publishing is on-demand by Ingram Content Group (ICG). I purchased my copy from Amazon.com and it was on-demand printed and shipped from one of the ICG Facilities located in Pennsylvania (USA). Ronald N. Tan @ "Tan Can Cook" Vacaville, California, USA -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UPDATED: January 25, 2023 I received feedback and reply from another seller (Table Top Art) here on Amazon and turns out their stock of "Prashad-Cooking with Indian Masters (Thoroughly Revised Edition, 2022)" suffers the same printing quality and errors my copy had. I've upload additional images the seller supplied me. I am going to repeat and emphasis that the culprit of this cheap handling and lacking quality assurance falls on the responsibility of the book publisher—Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd. Jiggs Kalra-ji (Om Shanti) is rolling in his grave, because his legacy and contribution to Indian cuisine is defiled in the cheap printing by Allied Publishers! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am issuing a BUYER'S BEWARE, because of the extremely poor printing quality from Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd. I don't know, if my copy was that "bad lemon," but those kind of errors are rampant and random in my copy of the 2022 revised version of the book. The marketplace seller (Nitya Pushta Books International) is superb. I've ordered rare and hard to source Indian cooking books here in the USA. It is not their fault, rather the PUBLISHER (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd). This is the second book from Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd that I had to return-for-refund due to their poor printing quality. The other book I've returned-for-refund is Jiggs Kalra-ji's "Classic Cooking of Rajasthan (Cuisine of Kotah)." It's from the same publishers. I am saddened, because the author Jiggs Kalra-ji (Om Shanti...he is no longer with the world) legacy of cooking is tainted by bad and poor printing of the publisher. Buyer Beware. Your copy may be perfect or your copy will be a bad lemon with poor printing like mine. You've been warned.

Please don’t be fooled by the name, like I was! I thought this was a book about all the “prasadams” or offerings to Gods in temples etc. NOPE. Imagine my shock when I saw that more than 90% of the recipes were non vegetarian. Wish they’d thought of a better name The pages and print quality are also very poor. I had to return it, which was a whole hassle by itself.
