I really would recommend checking out Beyond Brilliant if you want to learn how to make tasty authentic Indian dishes from a family that has a real passion for the food they produce. In a blender, combine mint, coriander, chilies, lemon juice, cumin seeds, amchoor and grind until the ingredients become a paste.

The book includes over 50 recipes and is clearly set out with ingredients, spices and methods for each recipe making it easy to follow and user friendly.Onion Bhajis are very popular especially in North Punjab region and most favorite appetizer in my family too, that’s the main reason I choose this item.

Whether you're looking for some textbooks for university, the latest biography or a travel guide - you'll find what you need in our categories. Its obvious that Dipna and the entire Brilliant family have a to of love for what they do and passion for Indian food. Other children's books include "Kay's Marvellous Medicine" and his first picture book "Amy Gets Eaten". Dipna showcases her secret family recipes created by her grandfather Beyond Brilliant which includes authentic Punjabi recipes from the kitchens of her restaurant as well as a few of her own unique and creative recipes. The book brings a brilliant modern healthy twist to Indian cooking, and is beyond brilliantly the first cross over Indian book I have read switching from restaurant cookery to home cookery.There is then a section on the Brilliant Restaurant where you can read about Dipna’s farther Gulu Anand and the restaurants head chef Jasvinderjit Singh. I love the style of writing and explaining about experiences, career, recipes and more about family.

There are many familiar recipes in the book found on a take-away cards and also traditional home style cooking. Now Dipna is taking the restaurant to new heights, building on those authentic recipes with ones of her own, some of which focus on healthy ingredients and low-fat cooking techniques. People who attend Indian restaurants rather than Bangladeshi ones will appreciate this book even more as this will get you closer to emulating the punjabi style of cooking more frequently found in Southall, Manchester and Glasgow. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. She's a woman on a mission - a mission to prove that Indian food can be tasty and good for you at the same time.Generally people grind the mint coriander and spices with yoghurt but in this recipe, Dipna add the mint and coriander paste in fresh yogurt and serve with savory items. It’s hard work but the book is fantastic and tells you how to prepare the ingredients and has loads of wonderful dishes from starts to mains to desserts. Now, thanks to Dipna's expert guidance, the Brilliant's food has been brought into the 21st century, with a strong emphasis on healthy ingredients and low-fat techniques. Here is one recipe which I tried at home from her new book “Beyond Brilliant”, Onion Bhajis (Punjabi Pakoras) with minty yogurt chutney. He is also one of the UK's bestselling children's authors, with "Kay's Anatomy" the fastest-selling nonfiction kids' book of the decade.
