About the BookAbout the Author

This cookbook introduces the reader to the culinary delights of Uttar Pradesh (U.P.) both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. The latter evolved mainly during the times of the Luckhnavi nawabs, reflecting their epicurean lifestyle. The book is well-written and even the most exotic recipe seems easy enough for beginners. There are personal glimpses about the recipes and anecdotes which liven up the book.

GUPTA, NIRU, took up cooking as a hobby but was soon enthused by the art of cookery. She has already published Cook, My Dear and Everyday Indian.
