Detailed, step-by-step instructions are provided for a wide range of dishes, all adapted to the western kitchen. Designed for busy cooks, these quick and easy recipes have been modified whenever possible to use foods available in supermarkets and health-food stores. The well-illustrated text is supplemented by a glossary and guides to spices, utensils, serving, menu planning, and shopping for “exotic” as well as “stand-by” ingredients. Beyond Curry has become a classic in Ann Arbor and is deserving of place in the collection of every adventurous cook.
