Milk & Cardamom: Spectacular Cakes, Custards and More, Inspired by the Flavors of India

I want to make everything in this cook book! I was sceptical at first and thought I would probably return it, but the recipes all look wonderful. Slightly different from American baking but close enough so they are not intimidating. There are some special ingredients but they are usually easily available. Looking forward to doing some baking.

I've only made the brownies (pretty good) and Gulab Jamun cake so far (delish!) and can't wait to try making more of the recipes. In fact, it's probably the only cookbook where I want to try everything in it.

I bought the book because I like cardamom and I like to bake. In browsing through, the photo of cinnimon rolls caught my eye. That is likely because I am not familiar with most of the foods in the book. Most of the ingredients in the recipes are easily obtainable and the recipes read well. I chose to make the cinnimon roll recipe first. Easy to follow directions and yummy results. I added some plumped raisins to half of the batch with happy results all around. The stories behind the recipes give a sense of place and occasion that I find helpful in planning for when I will gather the ingredients and make a recipe. Many of them are calling out for me to give them a go! Five stars for the cinnimon roll recipe! I made the cinnimon rolls a second tme, refridgerating overnight and baking in the morning. Just as tasty. More stars for the future! The pear and cardamom scones are light and delicious.

Amazing must have cookbook! Great step by step instructions and ingredient list in grams as well for best results! Such a lovely combination of Indian fusion desserts, sweets and drinks! Very unique recipes using wholesome ingredients! Very Highly recommended!! =)

Pretty interesting recipes. Everything we have made seems pretty delicious so far and my little son loves looking at all the pictures. Some additional details about ingredient choices and preparation would really make the Baker understand the recipes better.

The recipes in this cookbook are easy, approachable, and full of delicious flavors! The melding of classic recipes and Indian flavors is just astounding!! The first thing I made was almond chikki and everyone that tasted it was floored by how delicious it is! The delightful flavor of freshly ground cardamom and the earthy sweetness of jaggery are such wonderful surprises in what looks like it will be an ordinary almond brittle! The recipes in this book make my day sweeter and brighter!

Recipes are a bit complicated but give great results.

One of the best cookbooks I have owned. The recipes are straightforward and simply written to break the complicated ones down.

This book is truly amazing. Being a fellow Indian it gives you a good blend between western and traditional recipes that many people would shy away from due to the complexity. Hetal has really brought her/our culture to life with her twists.

Las autora juega con la esencia de los postres tradicionales clásicos de India y EEUU y los convierte en tesoros nuevos. Ella misma explica cómo veganizar varias de sus recetas y las que no explica, se pueden veganizar y hasta hacer sin gluten por ti mismo muy fácilmente.

This cookbook is great to add some Indian flavors to other lovely desserts. I am fascinated by the tres leches cake - so good.

It’s very basic Indian recipes in it. Was really expecting something more.

Big fan of everything I've tried to make so far!
