30 Minute Mowgli

This is the food that Nisha Katona cooks at home: punchy and delicious Mowgli-style recipes that take you from couch to curry in 30 minutes or less. As at Mowgli, the focus is on food that's big in flavour but also light, healthy and made from accessible ingredients, often just using what's already in your cupboard or fridge. For super usability, the chapters are themed around ingredients: "Poultry", "Meat", "Fish" and "Vegetables", with a desserts chapter as well as one called "Ma, Look Away!" Ð for Nisha's favourite pasta dishes. Tantalize your tastebuds with ÒQuick Angry TandooriÓ or ÒYoghurt Coriander TurkeyÓ, ÒGingerbread Lamb SteaksÓ or ÒKeema ToastiesÓ, ÒBengali Fish CurryÓ or ÒIndian Fish Finger SandwichesÓ, ÒBack of the Fridge CurryÓ or ÒMillion Dollar Green DahlÓ. All the recipes are meals that range from light lunches to substantial dinners; all you need to do is accompany them with one of the simple sides suggested in the introduction, which could be rice, noodles, potatoes or a chapati wrap. This is the food that real people want: tasty and nutritious meals to whip up without fuss while juggling work and childcare in an often chaotic working-from-home environment.
