Apparently he helped out with it
You still might buy it yet Phil ;)

It does look good, I must admit : very "traditional" in appearance, unlike the other three that look as if they would be more at home on a coffee table than in a busy kitchen. I shall have to consult the family accountant (currently working in Abu Dhabi : 0% income tax !) and see if there is management approval for a purchase ...

All jokes aside for curry lovers I still do recommend the book
The recipes are traditional and and also states what region it comes from
Kashmir,Punjab,Rajasthan, Agra and Deli:The Mughals'Imperial Cities,Awadh
Bengal, Hyderabad, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, The Western coast,Tribal Food, Trans-Himalayan Region
The North and Northeast and Tooting :)
Someone on this site must also have it for a second opinion

Thanks for posting that, Phil. most interesting.
Browsing some of the other sections of his site, I chanced upon a reference to 'Indian coriander seeds'. Despite my advancing years this is the first time I've heard of them (you learn something new every day, etc). Unlike what he calls the European variety we all know and love, Indian coriander seeds are oblong in shape, vary in colour from green to yellow, and have a lemony, nutty flavour.
I'm going to try to get hold of some to try, but haven't found anywhere in the Uk that sells them (yet).
