"More classic favorites from the Punjabi kitchen with 10 new chapters and dozens of new recipes! At the heart of this cookbook-memoir is the story of two women, a Punjabi villagers and her American daughter-in-law, and the lives they built together. More than an exceptional guide to India's most popular cuisine, this is also the intimate saga of a Punjabi family told through the food that had sustained and comforted them through the years. Each chapter features a family story, historical figure, of seasonal festival with recipes that typify the exuberant culture of Punjab. Tantilizing appetizers, entrees, sides and desserts are clearly marked vegan, vegetarian, or non-vegetarian. Ayurvedic principles and the health benefits of spices are the cornerstones of these recipes - from hearty, fragrant flatbreads and a variety of rustic, healthful lentil dishes, to world famous offerings like chicken tikka masala. Whether you want to re-create a favorite restaurant dish, or one from your grandmother's kitchen, Menus & Memories from Punjab will be your trusted guide."--Page [4] of cover.
