Healthy Indian Vegetarian Cooking pdf von The chef
I would like to thank my dearest sweet husband, Naveen,
for supporting and encouraging me every day in every way. Whether it's fixing a
nerve-wracking computer malfunction, helping with the never-ending pile of
dishes, caring for our darling daughter, or tasting and approving all of the fruit
and vegetable dishes in this book, he is always there for me. I want to thank my
delightful daughter, Jaya, for always finding fun in every situation, even when I
had to work long hours on my computer for this book. She would imitate me and
bring her own toy computer and sit on her little table with a pencil, notebook,
toy cell phone, and calculator.
At the same time, she also had dishes cooking in her play kitchen while I was
in my kitchen testing recipes.
I am also very appreciative of my dear friend, Anik Sayad Desjardins, who
was there for me at a moment's notice, always willing to give a helping hand and
sharing her culinary knowledge. Thanks for being a kind, amazing person and a
wonderful friend.
Thank you Monica Pope for writing the foreword for my book. I am honored
to have met you and to teach your Cooking Therapy classes along with you...
such fun, organized chaos they are! I admire your efforts to be eco-conscious
from recycling the oil in your restaurant kitchen to supporting local farmers.
I would like to thank my editor, Bud Sperry, my designer, Irene Ho, and my
editorial supervisor, June Chong, for working with me on my vision of this book
to come together beautifully. And for the amazing photographs in this book, a
thank you to Minori Kawana. A heartfelt thanks to Rowan Muelling-Auer and
Christopher Johns at Tuttle Publishing for your continuous support and for doing
all the amazing things you both do.
