  • Review Quotes:

    "Nearly 50 years after she moved to Wisconsin with her husband in 1971, [Alamelu has] built a nationwide audience for her recipes and approach in the kitchen. . . . Now, she's published her seventh cookbook, Vegetarian Flavors with Alamelu: Wholesome, Indian Inspired, Plant-Based Recipes . . . Vairavan has cooked dinner at the James Beard House in New York, but most of all she loves hearing from home cooks and helping them to add vegetables to their meals. "-- Kristine M. Kierzek, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel



    Review Quotes:

    "Filled with South Indian and Indian-inspired dishes, the cookbook ensures your in-season vegetables are never boring. We especially enjoyed the soups, rice dishes and vegetable seasoning suggestions. (The dishes make flavorful sides even if you're not vegetarian.) If you are not familiar with South Indian cuisine, Vairavan provides guidance for purchasing the necessary spices, flavorings and other ingredients at grocery stores and Indian markets."--Edible Phoenix



    Review Quotes:

    "Ms. Vairavan showcases why specific names matter when a cuisine offers a wide variety of choices like kootu, korma and poriyal in this, her seventh cookbook. . . . Her recipes are easy to follow and short, and she did it to erase another distortion. 'Indian cooking is not all laborious or difficult, ' she says."-- Arthi Subramaniam, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
