Comfort and Joy: Irresistible Pleasures from a Vegetarian Kitchen

Product Information

There is so much I want to make and eat within its pages-from the okra fries with kale-the mango gold coin curry-the strawberry faluda cheesecake-and blissfully a whole chapter on Bread. Im pretty good at gauging a recipe just from reading it so Im confidently judging this to be a good book based on having read through it. From dips to dhals and pastas to puddings, the pages are filled with familial narrative; of grandmothers, mothers, sisters and aunts, of shared recipes and communal cooking. For Ravinder, food should be made and shared with abundance in mind, and this sense of pleasure is conveyed on every page. It's strange that vegetarian food has a reputation in the West for being insipid fare, when every Indian knows its flavours can be explosive.

We are experiencing delays with deliveries to many countries, but in most cases local services have now resumed. Ravinder Bhogal's Comfort And Joy is a revelation-you will never look at "the vegetarian option" in the same way after diving into her inventive, bewitching and mouth watering book.

This cookbook by Ravinder Bhogal is a fresh take on vegetarian and vegan cooking; not geared towards health or denial but indulging all the senses with a decadent global larder. In this book, Ravinder brings together her signature style of storytelling, with a collection of everyday vegetarian recipes that are elegant yet completely practical. She has authored two books; her last Jikoni: Proudly Inauthentic Recipes from an Immigrant Kitchen , (Bloomsbury July 2020) won an IACP award for Best Restaurant Cookbook and was been shortlisted for the André Simon Award, and a Fortnum and Mason Award for Best Cookery Book .

Her debut restaurant, Jikoni, was ranked 56th in the UK by the National Restaurant Awards within 7 months of opening and achieved a coveted place in the Michelin Guide in the same year. If the Jikoni cookbook was a feast for the soul, with its nourishing stories and aspiring dishes, then Comfort and Joy is a real feast for the body. I must first admit I havent made anything from it yet, but the recipes look interesting, enticing and tasty.

I already have Ravinder’a other cook books so was quick to purchase this one knowing how much I love the others.
