Masala Farm

An acclaimed Indian chef shares the life and flavor of his New York State farm in this beautifully illustrated seasonal cookbook. Suvir Saran, an Indian chef and consummate city dweller, took an unusual leap when he decided to buy a farm in upstate New York. But that leap led to some fascinating stories—and some delicious results! In Masala Farm, Saran invites readers into his kitchen and offers a fresh twist on farm-to-table cooking. A steady stream of houseguests, the challenges of animal ownership, and the joys of being a part of a small-town community supply the stories woven throughout this volume. Sixty recipes are organized by season. Exquisite photography captures the lusciousness of Saran's food and the beauty of the countryside.
