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

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.

Ate at the Edinburgh Dishoom restaurant in August 2022 - for breakfast! It was lovely. The bacon naan wraps were incredible and the spiced eggs were a big hit (we "shared") at the table! I made the naan wraps for Christmas breakfast this year for the family - complete with never ending chai and handmade tomato relish/dipping sauce. I am ready to try out more recipes but I'm also learning about the cultures that contribute to this wonderful place and book.

Londra’da yediğim en lezzetli yemekleri yapan restoranlardan birisiydi Dishoom. Kitap öğünlere göre bölümlere ayrılmış; bölümlerde o öğünün kültürdeki yeri anlatılıyor, sonra da tariflere geçiyor. Yalnız benim gibi kitap konusunda kılı kırk yaran ve aşırı titiz birisine yine lekeli bir kapak geldi maalesef. Amazon bu konuda artık daha dikkatli olmalı... Bir yıldızı oradan kırdım.
