“INDIAN-ISH” is a cookbook by Priya Krishna (with aid from her Mom, Ritu Krishna). The recipes are from their modern kitchen in the United States. Perfect for working families, the recipes are simple and simply delicious. Many take 20 minutes or less to prepare. The book was a gift to HG/BSK from Lesley and Massimo R. (their visiting daughter and son-in-law). Lesley was in charge of dinner last night, using “Indian-ish” recipes. Joy reigned at the Prince Edward Island table. Main dish was “Garlic-Ginger Chicken With Cilantro and Mint.” Sliced chicken thighs were baked on a sheet pan after being marinated. A secret ingredient in the marinade was “amchur”, dry mango powder. The result was juicy, spicy chicken. Splendid. Sides were dal (made with pink lentils, turmeric and garlic). This was the best dal ever and simple to prepare. There was also fluffy rice mixed with scallions and herbs. HG had some mango chutney as a condiment. Can’t wait to eat more food prepared the “Indian-ish” way.
