Vina Patel’s favourite hobby is travelling to find her family’s next favourite dish, and in this book she shares her best80 tried-and-tested recipes from her adventures. The Spice Collector’s Cookbook compiles 80 original recipes from around the world, perfected by the author as she adds her native Indian flavour, flair and perfectionism. This is the cookbook to break you out of your usual cooking habits and introduce you to bold new flavours and ideas. There are authentic regional recipes, and fusion concoctions that break all the rules, all in the name of flavour! Traveling is Vina Patel’s favourite hobby. She has been fortunate enough to discover over 34 countries and counting! and she loves trying new, authentic cuisines in every place. If her family end up liking something, she’ll come home, master the recipe, but make it healthier, easier, and faster to make while retaining its delicious, unique taste. While embarking on this personal culinary journey that spans many, many years, Vina not only realized the true essence of her own (traditionally Gujarati) cooking skills, but she discovered and perfected cuisines from all over the globe.
