Heirloom Iyengar Recipes contains recipes of popular Iyengar community dishes. The recipes are in several sections named as groups. The first group is termed “Favourite Dishes” and although the items in this section were adopted by the Iyengar community a few hundred years ago, they were not part of the traditionally original recipes that have been in vogue for more than a thousand years. The second group consists of “Jams, Halwas and Murabbas” that can be preserved for months. The third group “Vadas, Papads and Sandige” consists of items processed and dried, with several months of shelf life. The fourth group “Pickles and Pudis” are items that can be stored for a long time. Pickles are usually made from sour raw fruits and vegetables consumed even months after their yielding season. Pudis are masala powders consumed with rice/dosas/idlis etc. Group five consists of varieties of “Dosas and Idlis” popularly served for breakfast. Group six has different varieties of fried rice. Being relatively dry, they are suitable for carrying as lunch/dinner. Group seven (final section) includes snacks specific to the community. All in all, although the book is not exhaustive, it covers many of the items traditionally exclusive to the community.

With a wide selection of vegetable curries, dals, stews and chutneys, this book provides a keen insight into the region’s cuisine.

These recipes carry with them the creativity, labour and love of generations of women in the author’s family, finely crafted and perfected over the years. The excellent food photography inside will help you instantly connect with the rich and delicious world of Andhra cuisine. Komala Sista Rao was a professional singer in the early 1960’s – a respected name in Hindustani light classical, Bollywood music and an All-India Radio artiste. She married at the age of 23 and moved to Germany, where she lived for ten years, cooking traditional Andhra recipes to preserve the essence of her home, away from home. When she returned to India, her kitchen was always open to friends and family, for whom she cooked just as her mother had done for years. Always serving up the best of meals, she earned a reputation of being a sublime and original cook.

Did you know legends have it that sambhar originated in the Royal Kitchen of the Thanjavur Maharashtrian Kings? Did you know that poli, pitla, rasa vaangi and daangar were introduced to Thanjavur by a small diaspora of the Maharashtrian immigrants to this province? The Thanjavur Maharashtrian Desastha community, whose origins can be traced to the latter half of the 17th Century, are known for their immense contribution in fostering cuisine, arts, music and literature. Classic Cuisine and Celebrations of the Thanjavur Maharashtrians introduces the reader to the foods and festivities of this diaspora. It also provides an introduction to the pujas, when and how they are performed, with a lot of interesting trivia. Festivals and food go hand in hand. The first part of the book features recipes for the naivedyas, while the second part is devoted to the signature recipes of the Desasthas. It features more than a hundred and fifty recipes ranging from fluffy pooran polis and crunchy ambodes, to a medley of modaks, varieties of mixed rice, kheers, traditional sweets, snacks, chutneys, powders, curries, sambhars and rasams. They contain no onion or garlic and are sattvik in nature. This book is an effort to encourage young home makers to revive traditions they grew up with, to help them relive their festive experiences during their childhood and introduce their children to it. “…As a person in the 8th decade of my life, reading this book gave me happy memories of my own childhood and the various dishes which I enjoyed in my youth particularly cooked by my mother…” “…The book has been written in a very reader-friendly manner so that for every festival, the complete set of dishes are described and various options are so beautifully explained that the recipes themselves may act as a trigger for every person to try her/his own creativity on the culinary front…” “…The colourful photographs enhance the value of the book and literally can lead to mouth-watering anticipation...” – Padma Bhushan N. Vittal (Retd) Central Vigilance Commissioner
