Straightforward Simple Nice Food - By: applsys, 01 Dec 2008 
We went to the East Midland Food show this year where Anjum was doing cookery demonstrations. She is passionate about her cooking & explains her methods & ingredients simply & effectively.
I've made a few of the dishesin here & found inspiration for some of my own based around the core recipesin this book. I'd recommend the yogurt based curry - very healthy with little fat or oil & very tasty. A winner with all the family.
CAN COOK, WILL COOK - By: N. Farooque, 27 Oct 2008 
This book has made me start to enjoy cooking! No longer the look of bewilderment when trying to cook a decent meal. The instructions are easy to follow, the pictures are a boost! I have her other book, Indian every day which does not have as many photos of the final result.
I have also had great service from shopping with the online retailers for all the ingredients. So simple. The resulting food is truly delicious. Such delicate & yet again tasteful flavours. I can not recommend enough
Dissapointed too - By: John S. Williams, 24 Aug 2008 
I bought this book after watching a couple of shows on television. This book is not inspiring, it is westernized Indian food at best. I read the other reviews & disregarded the negative ones, this was a mistake. I hope whom ever buys this at the charity shop likes it better than I.
Failed To Inspire - By: Dan H, 15 Aug 2008 
Given my title, that would suggest that I havn't made anything from this book, & if you assumed that, you would be right. So, you may wonder what right I have to review a cookery book when I have not tried any of the recipes, surely though a cookery book has suceeded to an extent if it inspires you to attempt only one of the recipes presented to you on it's pages.
And that is the main problem with this bookin my opinion, it just hasn't made me go into my kitchen & want to recreate any of the recipes I have seenin it, which is a real shame as I enjoy cooking a lot & like trying new kinds of cuisine.
So, does that make it a bad book? For me it is, but maybe for other people it's great. So I'd say see if you know someone who has a copy & ask to have a look at it or buy your own copy (it's not much money so even if it is a waste, it's not a big loss).
Disappointing - By: Claire Butcher, 14 Aug 2008 
I was disappointed by this book, after catching & enjoying a couple of episodes of the television programme. I don't know about Indian Food "Made Easy" as I found many of the recipes really fiddly & time consuming. I planned on hosting an Indian Dinner Party, but after spending all weekendin the kitchen on the practice run the weekend before, I simply couldn't face it! Plus, although good, the food isn't GREAT, which is what you'd hope for when it's taken several hours to prepare.
Think this will just live on my shelf gathering dust.
