It does not disappoint - I’ve already bought another copy for my mum and can see myself buying many more for other friends and family members. Aside from the delicious recipes, the book also looks great with lovely photos of not just the food but also Rukmini and her family, and the introductions to the whole book, sections and many of the individual recipes, giving background to the food and drawing on her own and her family’s experiences, make it a fascinating and heartwarming read. It’s also a really nicely laid out book, with clear sections and the ingredients for each recipe split into “main” and “store cupboard” which works really well - we’ve only had to add a couple of things to our own store cupboard to be set for most of the recipes in the book, making meal planning and adding ingredients to the shopping list nice and easy.

I’ve been in a bit of a rut with cooking recently but I’m genuinely excited by pretty much all the recipes in here - they all look so tempting and most really straightforward. I’m looking forward to making a train picnic soon! Both were incredibly quick to prep (one of my favourite things about the Roasting Tin series as by the time we’ve got the kids in bed we don’t want to spend the rest of the evening in the kitchen) and absolutely delicious. I’ve made two recipes from the book so far, first the Doi Maach (fish with yoghurt and turmeric - I used salmon) and (pictured) the spiced roasted paneer with peppers and tomatoes.
