Recipe testing for the second Prashad Indian Vegetarian Cookbook by Kaushy Patel!

Thursday, 29th May, 2014

Hey Foodies,

As you may have seen on Facebook and Twitter over the last few weeks (you haven’t? Quick, look at this delicious photo!) we have been recipe testing for our latest exciting venture – Kaushy’s second Prashad cookbook! It’s going to be released in Spring 2015, but we’re just so excited we wanted to start telling you all about it now. 

After the fantastic success of Prashad Indian Vegetarian Cooking (published by Saltyard Books in September 2012), the focus of the second book will be on authentic home-cooking, with dishes that are a little quicker and easier than the restaurant versions. Kaushy’s been working her culinary magic on classic snacks and quick meals with a Gujarati twist, which, as her family, we were lucky enough to enjoy growing up in the Patel household – such as the World’s Best Cheese on Toast!

The book is even going to feature a fusion section! Our Operations Director Bobby couldn’t have described it any better when he said Kaushy will be “wandering into other countries and creating her own, delicious, vegetarian versions of their classic dishes”. You can look forward to our take on Italian (did you see the picture of the homemade pizza we put on Facebook?!), Mexican, and Chinese, as well as lots more Indian cuisine.

Kaushy says:

“I can’t wait to share more of our family recipes with the world! Home cooking is all about creating simple food that doesn’t compromise on flavour for the people you love, and that’s what I’m trying to capture for the next book.”

We can’t wait! To keep up to date with Kaushy and Minal’s recipe testing check out our Facebook page and follow us on Twitter @Prashad_veggie – there are lots more mouth-watering photos where these came from!

Love, the Patel family
