Winner of the Gourmand World CookbookAwards 2019 in the South Pacific category, Annapurna is a collection of dishes from Nalini's childhood memories and the changing food and eating habits she observed in Fiji and other countries of her residence which have embraced the culinary delights of Indian cuisine. The hub of all these activities was the kitchen, the heart of the home. With a variety of enticing recipes, the book is set in the context of Fiji with a historical view of curries and how the foods travelled from India to its diaspora. A truly gourmet experience. Annapurna is the goddess who blesses us with food and is the source of all nourishment.
