About the Book

Gujarati cuisine is a perfect representation of the culture of Gujarat: vibrant and varied; subtlety intertwined deftly with the bold; traditional evolving effortlessly into the more contemporary.

In Gujarati Cuisine, Asha Khatau, India’s leading vegetarian cookbook author, invites you to experience the true taste of Gujarat with recipes from her personal collection. Cook up a thali of Gujarati vegetarian delights such as Surti Undhiyu, Handvo, Panki, Thepla, varieties of Dal, Kadhi, Shaak; popular Farsan including Dhokla, Khandvi and Chevdo and typical Gujarati sweets such as Gol Papdi and Navratan Basundi. A special section on Farali food will convince you that a fast can be as good as a feast.

Asha Khatau needs no introduction to lovers of vegetarian food. Author of numerous cookbooks on Indian and international vegetarian food, with Gujarati Cuisine, Asha invites us into her personal kitchen and reveals the variety and depth of flavours in this celebrated vegetarian cuisine.

From spicy Kutchi to milder Surti, and cosmopolitan Ahmedabadi fare, Asha lays out a banquet of traditional and contemporary dishes which will delight the palate with their sometimes subtle, sometimes bold flavours, but more often than not with their keynote hint of sweetness.

Gujarati dishes on offer in this book include all the traditional favourites and a few more. Discover the delights of Cashew Puri Sandwich, Mohanthaal, Saat Dhaan ni Khichdi, Fajeto, Turia Patra nu Shaak, Trevati Dal na Dhokla, and a range of fasting foods including Rajgara na Thepla and Farali Kand No Handvo.
