And few cuisines of India are as elegant and deliciously different as that of Jaipur, India's fabled Pink City. Manju Shivraj Singh, niece of the last Maharani of Jaipur, shares her family's private collection of hundreds of scrumptious recipes, all of them appealing to American appetites and most of them very easy to prepare. Many of the recipes were handed down by the Maharani. Herself a working wife and mother, Manju Singh concentrates on tastes and techniques that are quick and delicious. Her recipes include the classic Tandoori Chicken, shrimp fritters, a variety of succulent stuffed samosas, dozens of curries - from the richest meat to the lightest vegetarian curries, lovely rice dishes, soul-satisfying soups, refreshing salads, and a complete range of Indian breads and desserts. From the pages of this sumptuously illustrated book you can choose to prepare King's Curry, whole fish stuffed with chutney, an extraordinary barbecued leg of lamb, or whitefish in a delicate saffron and cream sauce. Mrs. Singh covers the entire culinary spectrum. From wedding banquets literally for a king to spicy snacks and appetizers that make a perfect change of pace for today's parties, the recipes in Royal Indian Cookery blend authentic flavor with the ease of modern ingredients and preparation.
