Monica Bhide Review at the Daring Kitchen, "Modern Spice" http://tinyurl.com/ktgqpf . Here is an excerpt —
"The real star of the show is indeed the recipes, which are an extension of Bhide herself, the very personification of « East meets West meets 21st Century ». Indian cuisine purists be warned : Modern Spice is indeed a very modern interpretation of what could be called « classic » Indian fare. Taking the most fundamental tools found in traditional Indian dishes such as cilantro, cumin, Garam Masala, tumeric (and so many others !), Bhide crafts mouth-watering dishes such as : Butternut Squash Stew with Jaggery, Pomegranate Shrimp, Tilapia Curry with Roasted Spices, or my family’s new favourite, Pista-Mirch-Dhaniya, a fantastic pistachio-chile-coriander spread."
