This book is filled with flavorful recipes that are sure to become family staples in your household!

From the Mouth of a Kid:

I love all of the new recipes mom has been making from this cookbook! 

From the Eyes of a Parent:

The recipes in Modern Spice are simple enough to allow me to make dishes that I would usually only think of ordering in a restaurant, at home. It’s great when you can find a cookbook that inspires you to try something different. Creating and serving dishes from this book has opened the minds of my kids to Indian culture and cuisine, creating a whole new learning opportunity for my family!

Flavorful Features:

Modern Spice includes: 

• Great Narrative Food Stories
• Indian Food in Every Capacity
• Beautiful Food Photography

The Icing on the Cake:

We loved the stories Monica provides behind the food, whether they were family food traditions or Indian cultural histories!
