There are more varieties of cooking in India than in the rest of the entire world, yet American cookbooks tend to focus only on what's familiar here. Tiffin encompasses recipes from across the continent, where flavours vary from coconut and tamarind to curry and masala and everything in between. In the West, the cuisine is influenced by Portuguese flavours and the sea, with rich crab curries. In the North, meat dishes, such as tandori chicken and mutton stew, warm the body on a cold Himalayan night. Delhi is known for street delicacies such as flat breads and kababs. And throughout the country are Persian, Thai, and British influences as well. A tiffin is a traditional Indian lunch pail that holds homemade curries, vegetables, rice, and spicy meats. This expansive cookbook opens it up to show the diverse flavours from all of the regions of India.
