I’ve made two recipes from the book so far, first the Doi Maach (fish with yoghurt and turmeric - I used salmon) and (pictured) the spiced roasted paneer with peppers and tomatoes. Both were incredibly quick to prep (one of my favourite things about the Roasting Tin series as by the time we’ve got the kids in bed we don’t want to spend the rest of the evening in the kitchen) and absolutely delicious. I’m looking forward to making a train picnic soon!
It does not disappoint - I’ve already bought another copy for my mum and can see myself buying many more for other friends and family members. I’ve been in a bit of a rut with cooking recently but I’m genuinely excited by pretty much all the recipes in here - they all look so tempting and most really straightforward. I’m really excited about trying the rest of the recipes (and especially being able to use up our veg box potatoes on something more exciting than mash) - in the meal plan for next week are the masala frittata, the coconut rice with cashew nuts, the tandoori roasted sweetcorn and the prawn malai curry, and I’ll definitely be making some chai, some cheese stuffed potato cakes and the cheddar, cumin and nigella seed straws.
Aside from the delicious recipes, the book also looks great with lovely photos of not just the food but also Rukmini and her family, and the introductions to the whole book, sections and many of the individual recipes, giving background to the food and drawing on her own and her family’s experiences, make it a fascinating and heartwarming read. I’m a huge fan of the Roasting Tin books so was looking forward to this one coming out. It’s also a really nicely laid out book, with clear sections and the ingredients for each recipe split into “main” and “store cupboard” which works really well - we’ve only had to add a couple of things to our own store cupboard to be set for most of the recipes in the book, making meal planning and adding ingredients to the shopping list nice and easy.
