Book description
In his Channel 4 series TV chef Gordon Ramsay embarks on a culinary
journey around India, discovering the breadth and depth of cooking of
the country. His cookbook is packed with the best recipes from his
travels, showing you how to cook authentic dishes that are bursting with flavour.
Three-star chef Gordon Ramsay's favourite food is one that he shares
with a lot of Britain - curry. But, until now, he's never been to India
to see how the real thing is cooked. Accompanied by a Channel 4 film
crew, Gordon takes the culinary trip of a lifetime to discover real
Indian cuisine and share this collection of over 100 of his favourite
Indian dishes.
As you'd expect from a Michelin-starred chef, Gordon brings his eye for
perfection and ability to judge flavours perfectly to his exploration of
Indian food and shows us how to cook authentic, mouth-watering dishes
from all over this huge and varied country. He visits Kerala deep in the
South of India to bring us spicy, coconut-based curries and travels to
colourful Rajasthan to learn about the creamy, flavourful dishes of the
North. Along the way Gordon experiences the hugely different flavours
and spices from the different regions and absorbs local cooking styles
and traditions.
Throughout his culinary journey, Gordon selects the best of the vast
array of Indian spices, now readily available in British supermarkets.
He shows us how to use these authentically to produce a beautifully
flavoured Indian dish. Gordon Ramsay's Great Escape includes over 100
recipes in the following sections: Everyday, Entertaining, Quick Lunches
and Healthy Dishes.
Once Gordon shows you how easy it is to put together authentic Indian
dishes, you'll never look back. Gordon Ramsay's radical career change
at 17 years old led him to London and to fame and fortune as chef,
restaurant-empire-builder and celebrity. Gordon has published nine
bestselling recipe books, a hugely successful autobiography and has
starred in a stream of successful television series including the
award-winning Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen and The F
Word. He was appointed OBE in 2006.
