Dishoom: The first ever cookbook from the much-loved Indian restaurant
Autor Shamil Thakrar, Kavi Thakrar, Naved Nasiren Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 sep 2019
Găsim în această carte momentul ideal pentru a transforma o seară obișnuită într-o expediție senzorială prin agitația și aromele Indiei. Dishoom nu este doar o colecție de rețete, ci o scrisoare de dragoste adresată orașului Bombay și vechilor sale cafenele iraniene. Descoperim aici secretele din spatele unor preparate care au creat cozi interminabile în Londra, de la celebrul „Bacon Naan Roll” de la micul dejun, până la legendarul „Black Daal” gătit lent, a cărui textură catifelată a devenit un etalon al gastronomiei indiene moderne.
Putem afirma că structura volumului este una cinematografică: suntem conduși, oră de oră, într-un tur al sudului orașului, de la primele ceaiuri băute la Kyani & Co. până la briza nocturnă de la Nariman Point. Fotografiile vibrante și harta pliabilă inclusă fac ca experiența de lectură să fie la fel de bogată precum cea de gătit. Complementar volumului The Curry Secret: unde acela se concentrează pe tehnicile standard de bază ale restaurantelor indiene din vest, Dishoom explorează specificul regional și atmosfera unică a unei metropole vibrante, integrând povești personale și context cultural în fiecare pagină. Stilul narativ transformă rețetele tehnice, precum biryani-ul cu jackfruit sau cotletele de miel „Lamb Raan”, în experiențe accesibile, menținând totodată un respect profund pentru tradiție. Este o invitație de a aduce la masa noastră nu doar mâncare, ci și spiritul de comunitate promovat de autorii Shamil Thakrar, Kavi Thakrar și Naved Nasir.

Despre autor
Shamil și Kavi Thakrar sunt co-fondatorii renumitului grup de restaurante Dishoom, lansat în Covent Garden în 2010. Crescuți în Londra, dar profund conectați la rădăcinile lor indiene, cei doi au petrecut ani de zile explorând cartierele din Bombay pentru a înțelege nuanțele gastronomiei locale. Lor li se alătură Naved Nasir, bucătarul executiv al grupului, care și-a clădit cariera în restaurante de prestigiu din India înainte de a revoluționa scena culinară londoneză. Împreună, aceștia promovează un model de afaceri bazat pe ospitalitate și caritate, donând milioane de porții de mâncare prin inițiativele lor sociale.
Descriere
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERAn eccentric and charming cookbook from Dishoom, with over 100 recipes from the much-loved restaurants. At long last, Dishoom share the secrets to their much sought-after Bombay comfort food: the Bacon Naan Roll, Black Daal, Okra Fries, Jackfruit Biryani, Chicken Ruby and Lamb Raan, along with Masala Chai, coolers and cocktails. As you learn to cook the Dishoom menu, you will also be taken on a day-long tour of south Bombay, peppered with much eating and drinking. You'll discover the simple joy of early chai and omelette at Kyani and Co., of dawdling in Horniman Circle on a lazy morning, of eating your fill on Mohammed Ali Road, of strolling on the sands at Chowpatty at sunset or taking the air at Nariman Point at night. This beautiful cookery book and its equally beautiful photography will transport you to Dishoom's most treasured corners of Bombay. Read it, and you will find yourself replete with recipes and stories to share with all who come to your table.
Recenzii
This book is a total delight. The photography, the recipes and above all, the stories. I've never read a book that has made me look so longingly at my suitcase
There are few cookbooks that immerse you in their subject so thoroughly and so lovingly as Dishoom. Part travel guide, part history, part food manual, this reads like a personal diary with a stonking recipe collection as a bonus. I could eat the Mattar Paneer every week and I probably will, with a Chilli Cheese Toast chaser
Like its carefully observed, pitch perfect restaurants, Dishoom's cookbook is a feast for all the senses, and brings the restaurant's delicious dishes into the home kitchen. Every page is begging to be pored over and cooked from, each picture leaping from the page with atmosphere and generosity. It's a gorgeous thing
Shamil Thakrar's intimate, rich and lyrical writing and stories, alongside striking photography, takes the reader on a ride from Koolar & Co café to Marine Drive
A tantalising foodie tour through the highways and byways of India's largest metropolis
The results prove worth it every time, and the book is a pleasure to read
Over 100 comfort food recipes - inspired by Parsi, Muslim, Hindu and Christian traditions - take you from dawn till dusk, starting with breakfast and ending with dinner and a nightcap. Given the time, I'd cook every single one of them
Dishoom: From Bombay with Love is a delightful read. Even if you're just after the secret of the bacon naan
These brilliant, easy-to-follow recipes are a virtual tour of the city's best eating and drinking spots
The only cookbook my 21 year old son has shown interest in - ever
Bravo for the perfect cookbook: great recipes that really work, witty and friendly words, but also beautiful design and evocative, story-telling photography
This cookbook would be top of my Christmas list
A book for the masses
The cookbook we've been waiting for
A book for both the coffee table and the kitchen
As good as any travel book, if not better
It truly is a feast, not only for the stomach, but also the eyes
This splendid book is both a loving tribute to the city and a sumptuous guide to Dishoom specialties. An irresistible book for any lover of Indian food
The authors pay exuberant tribute to their bustling, overcrowded, magnificently architectured, poverty-stricken, food-loving native city
For step-by-step recipes and fabulous traveller's tales, you'll have to buy this book
Caracteristici
Notă biografică
Dishoom serves a much-loved menu of Bombay comfort food and award-winning drinks in beautiful restaurants that each have a unique story. The first Dishoom opened in Covent Garden in 2010, and there are now five restaurants in London, one in Edinburgh, and one in Manchester. Dishoom breaks downbarriers by bringing people together over food and drink: in its restaurants, at its events, and through charity (donating a meal for every meal, with 6.2 million meals donated so far). Shamil and Kavi Thakrar are co-founders of Dishoom and Naved Nasir is Executive Chef. Shamil and Kavi grew up in London, but have spent many years becoming deeply acquainted with Bombay's flavours and quirks and falling in love with the city. Naved worked in various renowned restaurants in Bombay before moving to London to open Dishoom.This is their first cookbook.
