AndreaL Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 Hi allI'm on the hunt for a book called Indian delights or possibly The best of Indian delights by Zuleikha Mayat. I would prefer the older book with 397 pages and not the newer smaller version. Will pay postage costs and price of book, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamunda Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 come to think of it, something I do miss in Oz is spicy food Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreaL Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 come to think of it, something I do miss in Oz is spicy food I'm determined to learn to make the best naan and samoosa's and short of finding someone to teach me, this book sounds like a good option. I've also ordered another South African Indian cooking book by Ramola Parbhoo, available at most libraries here.....yum yum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsMupersan Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Also, if you get it from Amazon, you know it'll arrive. There's always the possibility that mail from SA will be affirmatively re-directed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
