Khan’s nostalgic description of the long nights of storytelling during the monsoon after eating khatteh ande (eggs in tamarind gravy) for dinner had me reaching for the eggs from my fridge. Recipes we love: Buttermilk Chicken Pakoras, Sikandari Raan (spiced leg of lamb), Nine Jewel Korma, and Zarda (sweet rice with saffron and nuts). Asma Khan: I think for women, we need to first fight misogyny because that is immediate, that is soul destroying, that undermines your ability to move on and create good and be good and do positive things for others, and I think we need men as well to be on our side. There are enough of us in positions of power and strength, and I think instead of just focusing on building our own careers, unfortunately you do still have a lot of women who throw away the ladder when they reach wherever they want to be at the top, we really need to clear the pathways for the generation coming after us.Her dishes in Ammu follow her life stages with chapters from her childhood, her years in Cambridge when she was learning to cook, and a further chapter with recipes she made when her skills had improved. Asma’s food is homage to her royal Mughlai ancestry and the busy streets of Calcutta, where she grew up. As the proprietor of the only all-female Indian restaurant of its kind in the world, the restauranteur’s next mission is to take Darjeeling Express into a space where the diners can see her calm and hardworking workforce at work. A] sumptuous salute to her Indian heritage with recipes and stories … Khan’s menus, technical guidance, and soulful stories make this outing a pleasure every step of the way.

In this book, Asma reveals the secret to her success, telling her immigrant's story and how food brought her home. It is absolutely inspired by the motives on the recipe cookbook I took with me when I left India, writing random notes. Khan divides her alluring recipes into feasts for two, family feasts, eating with friends, and celebratory feasts.Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you. I usually use brown basmati as my rice of choice but in this dish, the white variety is very good indeed.

If you love Indian food, in all its richness, complexity and regional differences, you need this book; if you feel daunted by the idea of cooking Indian food, you need this book too. People don't want to acknowledge the contribution of the foreigners, the outsiders, as they see them, and it's very important. I wrote all the pros sitting up at nights and the recipes, I didn't even have to think because with the stories were linked all the recipes.She is a powerful force behind the promotion of women in the hospitality industry and leads from the front with her all-female kitchen. Suzy Chase: In your book you have chapati, an unleavened flatbread, where you talk about how futile your food is. I loved how packed full of flavour this whole dish was, from the marinated steaks to the spiced Garlic and Chilli Mash. Perfect for: Anyone with an interest in authentic Indian food, home cooks looking to shake up their midweek meal repertoires, dinner party enthusiasts, and fans of food memoirs and food writing. On the one hand, these are supposed to be family recipes, not restaurant recipes, so it doesn't make sense to critique it in the same way.
