Dishoom: The First Ever Cookbook From The Much-Loved Indian Restaurant

A beautifully written book, giving an authentic perspective of being in Bombay. I consider myself to be a pretty competent cook when it comes to Indian cooking since having my interest awakened during Covid. The recipes in this book has taken my interest (and cooking) to another level. I’m now using ingredients that I previously hadn’t heard of (all readily available to buy on Amazon). A book of substantial size that is a pleasure to read and discover new, amazing Indian dishes. Highly recommended !

Fantastiska recept och intressant läsning och lärorik.

What a lovely book! Large format, beautiful photos and the text is very engaging to read. This is not a cookbook in the traditional sense, it's more a cultural history with photos and a wealth of recipes. This is the type book you can open at random and start reading or start at the beginning, as the mood strikes. I have not yet cooked any of the recipes but they are easy to follow and well explained, so I'm sure the results in the kitchen will be great. I use my Kindle for most book purchases now but I purchased Dishoom in printed, book form and I strongly suggest you do as well. This is one that would loose a lot on a small screen. As a printed book it's fantastic, I can't wait to get a few oil smudges on it propped up in my kitchen next to the stove while I chop onions!

Love this cookbook!!

This is a fantastic book. I wish all cook books were like this. I am from the south of India, but this book makes you fall in love with South Mumbai. The photographs and the write ups - in addition to the recipes - are to be experienced. It was such a joy to read this book.
