Book excerpt: Recreating traditional dishes from across the world in your own kitchen isn't just about following complicated recipes. It is about growing so comfortable with them that you can churn out global delicacies without breaking a sweat or burning a hole in your pocket. From British pub food such as the humble Shepherd's Pie to a lip-smacking curry from the streets of Southeast Asia, or the classic French Coq-Au-Vin - I have deconstructed each recipe in this book, so you can fearlessly approach even the ones which challenge the mightiest of chefs. The idea of this book (my third after Indian Bohra Cuisine and Inner Truthto Good Health and Weight Loss) is not to churn out just another heap of recipes, no matter how glossy and attractively packaged. No, I wanted to do something more meaningful with food and cooking, which have been lifelong passions, so a book about food is not something I can take lightly. In the end, I settled on bringing traditional world cuisines to the modern family. The funny thing about these traditional dishes is that many of us have heard of them, even tasted them in some cases, but they rarely come out of our home kitchens. Whether owing to a lack of knowledge about the proper ingredients, or a vague feeling that the methods may be too unfamiliar to handle, we usually give these dishes a pass when cooking. As the volume of recipes grew, I felt the need to bring them all under one umbrella, as it were, and a book was the best idea that occurred to me. I hope you will have as much fun going throu -gh it as I had putting it together.
