Review:
This book wonderfully delves deeply into south Indian cuisine (which you would expect given it’s name Dakshin a Sanskrit word meaning South). Unlike other books which try and cover the whole of India or wider, this book unashamedly focusses on the core of Padmanabhan’s experiance and brings us excellent authentic recipes which anyone with a love of spices will adore.
It comes with beautifully tempting photographes, a glossary of terms and suggested menus enabling you to produce the complete south Indian experience.
Example Recipes:
- Sweet pepper poriyal
- Coconut curd salad
- Dosas
- Tamarind rice
- Sambar
