Industry Reviews
"Her husband's struggle with high cholesterol and his subsequent bypass surgery led Lakhani to an unsuccessful search for heart-healthy Indian recipes, followed by in-depth research into diet and nutrition. The result is a compilation of classic Indian recipes and a few non-Indian ones, all modified to meet the 'current dietary guidelines for maintaining good health, such as those published by the American Heart Association'--modifications that include lowering the contents of fats, cholesterol, sodium, and sugar, and increasing fiber. The recipes range from soups, appetizers, and main-dish accompaniments to vegetarian and nonvegetarian entrees, rices, breads, and desserts. The step-by-step directions are clear, and each recipe contains serving suggestions and per-serving nutrient analysis. The kitchen-tested (recipes) rate high on the taste scale. Appended matter is a treasure trove of information on Indian ingredients and spices as well as on dietary concerns."

"An opportunity to indulge in wonderful-tasting food without pangs of guilt...The book is designed for healthy people who want to control their cholesterol as well as those who need to restrict their diets. In addition to recipes, the reader gets an education in fitness, food products, and label reading...distilled into short, easy-to-understand passages."
