Jeffrey P.: This is the third time I’ve bought this book. I have lost it in various moves but I keep buying it. So many great tasting and easy to make recipes in here. I have cooked for myself, friends, and family and we have all been very pleased. Coming from a white background I needed to purchase a decent amount of Indian spices and herbs but it’s totally worth it to enjoy these dishes.

Amazon Customer: I really feel that i have to defend this cook book. As i recent purchaser of an Instant Pot and a lover of Indian food I preordered this. I have made two things so far. The instructions are straight forward, easy to follow and have made delicious meals. Looking at the negative reviews -its for an Instant Pot, the directions are easy if you have one. Yes, the recipes have a lot of ingredients-i for one have made hundreds of curries and most are the same-i have all the ones she uses and more. Rick Steins India has more complex directions and ingredients.
It has beautiful pictures. My only negative is i would have liked more recipes for what i paid but so far, delicious, healthy, quick easy food with easy to follow instructions-Just what i want. Just remember to have a separate seal especially for cooking curries. I use the red one for cooking any curry in my IP. I like this book, a lot.

Mary C.: I LOVE this cookbook! I think I've set a personal record sticking Post-It Notes on pages of recipes I want to try--this despite dozens of beloved cookbooks in my possession. This is my seventh IP cookbook (Zimmerman, Randolph, Clark I, Lawrence, ATK, and a $0.99 one that wasn't worth a penny). It's my third Jaffrey cookbook (the seminal "World Vegetarian," and the more recent "Vegetarian India"). And my umpteenth vegetarian cookbook, going all the way back to Moosewood.
This book is about 160 pages chock-full of recipes and tips. There are LOTS of recipes. Some of the recipes cover 3 pages: the author wants to make sure we thoroughly understand her recommended technique. I don't need another IP encyclopedia, but I'm excited to try tested recipes from this esteemed cookbook author. Furthermore, unlike some others, this book is specific to the Instant Pot. The author points out that Indian cooks have been using pressure cookers for generations, so here she combines this tradition with her trials of our brand-new beloved Instant Pots.
Ms. Jaffrey knows all about writing cookbooks for an American/Canadian audience, so the ingredients are accessible. In my remote location...

D. Tulchin: In all fairness, so far everything I've tried has come out tasty. But, one can't follow the instructions blindly. The business of sautéing veggies on high is just plain wrong (Instant Pot does not recommend this in their manual.) I was happy to see that many of the recipes did not duplicate my other Indian Instant Pot cookbook, which I prefer. The use of the low pressure setting is rather unusual, and of course many of those recipes could be just as easily made on the stove top. That said, I did try the pressure cooker for the Southern Style Mushrooms in a Creamy Coconut Sauce...they came out great and were very easy to reheat the next day.
It was nice to see at least one recipe using the slow cooker method. The Lamb with Spinach came out fantastic!
Tonight I'm making the Butter Chicken (very different from the one in my other IP cookbook) but I'm doing it on the stove. Hey, a recipe is a recipe!

jjr: Seduced by Madhur Jaffrey's reputation, I wanted a contrast to Urvashi Pitre's Indian Instant Pot cookbook, something that might take me to a higher level. How wrong I was! Far too many recipes having nothing to do with the Instant Pot, and it's as if the book's editor just threw something together in a couple of days to bank on Jaffrey's prestige. A major disappointment.

Becky at the beach: Madhur Jaffrey is one of my favorite cookbook authors. I find her recipes appealing, authentic, and approachable. Pressure cooking is actually common in Indian cooking, I have several older cookbooks that call for stove top pressure cookers, so converting recipes to the IP would be a natural progression and Jaffrey a natural pick to write the recipes.
The recipes are old familiars, dal, butter chicken, korma, designed for the IP. Even so there are a few surprises and new fresh dishes like avocado radish salad.
One word of caution here. I usually shrug off the IP moniker because there are a lot of knock off electric pressure cookers that will do the same thing just fine. Maybe some small adjustments are needed, but I find most authors who write recipes for the IP are using most of the same settings, saute, then pressure cook. Jaffrey does not, she uses a lot of the IP functions. The most obvious and the one that you need to make sure your PC has is low pressure. Many electric PC only have high pressure, and it would be frustrating because a fair number of these recipes are for low pressure. 7 of the chicken/egg recipes, pretty much all the seafood etc are low...

Väl beskrivna recept! Fantastiska smaker stor variation, lagom med information om hur man tillagar rätterna!
Denna boken blev min första ”go to” för hemmalagad indisk mat! Madhur blev min guru!
Kan bara rekommendera!!!
Finns en uppsjö av fina och intressanta indiska kokböcker - har köpt rätt många efter denna!
Återkommer dock fortfarande ofta till dessa recepten och även hennes andra böcker..
Om ni vill lära er att laga ”riktig” indisk mat med egen garam masala och alla andra underbara kryddor köp denna (eller någon annan av hennes otaliga böcker) och grotta ner er och njut!
Rekommenderar starkt🤩
