Spices and Seasons – Simple, Sustainable Indian Flavors

Spices and Seasons is about seasonal options for the home cook with Indian flair.  The over 150 recipes, will offer you homey recipes including slow cooker chickpeas and show you that there is more to Kale than just a massaged kale salad.

My book will hopefully encourage you to find beauty and comfort in the magic of nature. Inspired by the bounty of local produce, mostly from our own backyard, I have create recipes for busy, time-strapped home cooks who want to blend Indian flavors into nutritious family meals. Arranged in chapters from appetizers through desserts, the cookbook includes everything from small bites, soups, seafood, meat and poultry, and vegetables, to condiments, breads, and sweets. You’ll find recipes for tempting fare like Mango and Goat Cheese Mini Crisps, Roasted Red Pepper Chutney, Crisped Okra with Dry Spice Rub, Smoky Roasted Eggplant and Tomato Puree, and Red Harvest Masala Cornish Hens, to name a few.

Spices & Seasons awakened my sleepy palate the moment I opened it! What gorgeous, beguiling recipes and such wise words about so much, especially about children and vegetables. I am off to my kitchen, book in tow and with great anticipation of many wonderful meals.” –DEBORAH MADISON, author of Vegetable Literacy and The New Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone
