In the last decade, Indian food has grown ever more popular throughout North America. Now, in this one-of-a-kind cookbook, Smita Chandra introduces the ancient art of tandoori cooking, modified for a kitchen or backyard grill. Since most home chefs in America don't have access to a tandoor -- a large clay oven sunk into the ground and layered with glowing charcoal -- Chandra spent years perfecting traditional tandoori recipes for the home grill. In Indian Grill, she presents a complete range of over 100 dishes, from vegetables and chicken to seafood and lamb, with accompanying raitas, chutneys, and dips. Other chapters are devoted to appetizers and drinks, basic sauces, soups and salads, and rice. Recipe headnotes offer the reader a culinary history, evoking the beguiling tastes, smells, and sights of India. Among the mouth-watering recipes are Machali Masala (grilled breaded salmon steaks marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices); Achari Kabobs (lamb marinated in pickling spices, onions, and vinegar); and Thayir Pachadi (cucumber with grilled potatoes, onions, and tomatoes in yogurt); as well as many others. Vegetarians, who often have little choice at barbecues, will find a sumptuous selection of vegetable dishes, such as Baingan Kashmiri (baby eggplant coated in a sweet-and-sour tamarind fennel sauce served with grilled apples). Ideal for both the summer backyard barbecue and the indoor kitchen grill, Indian Grill is a fresh, flavorful, and healthy take on Indian cooking, tandoori style.

“Rao gives new meaning to ‘dinner and a movie’ by creating menus inspired by classic Indian films.”—Houston Chronicle Indian cuisine and Indian cinema (known as Bollywood) share much in common—bold colors and flavors with plenty of drama. But to the uninitiated, they can seem dizzying. Let Sri Rao be your guide. As one of the only Americans working in Bollywood, Sri is an expert on Indian musical films, and as an avid cook, he’s taken his mom’s authentic, home-cooked recipes and adapted them for the modern, American kitchen. In this book you’ll find dinner menus and brunch menus, menus for kids and menus for cocktail parties. Along with each healthy and easy-to-prepare meal, Sri has paired one of his favorite Bollywood movies. Every one of these films is a musical, packed with dazzling song-and-dance numbers that are the hallmark of Bollywood, beloved by millions of fans all over the world. Sri will introduce each film to you, explaining why you’ll love it, and letting you in on some juicy morsels from behind the scenes. “Rao has created more than a book of recipes. There is seldom a cookbook that voracious readers can flip through for story; this one feeds the eye and imagination. One can run their thumb and forefinger over technicolor pages featuring decadent film and food stills. The narrative also unearths the author: cheeky, perceptive, honest.”—Edible Brooklyn “Full of humor and insight, Bollywood Kitchen makes a great read, even if neither Bollywood nor cooking are your passions. A delightful read.”—News India Times
