Curry: A Tale of Cooks and Conquerors

This is just the kind of book that's serialised in the Sunday Times (the one printed in England).



A potted history of India following the development of its culture and cuisine, hilariously brief in many parts.



Rather than being a history of Indian cooking, it is more a history of the inrtoduction of Indian cuisine in English culture and the acceptance and development of Indian restaurant in England.



Yes, the author does look into the evolution of the various schools of gastronomy in India, but it is all leading up to the focus on England and it's food culture. In all fairness the many interesting vignettes she comes up with, are quite interesting, but a history it is not.



The recipes are interesting and I am sure to try them.



Do not read this, expecting a serious history of Indian food.
