In the Indian way of classification, foods are grouped into three categories—sattvic (goodness/ equanimity), rajasic (passion/stimulants) and tamasic (ignorance/sedative). Onions and garlic—classified as rajasic and tamasic—are supposed to increase passion and ignorance. For those who subscribe to pure brahmana-style of cooking this is the book to possess. Easy to cook, with delectable recipes for every meal—be it breakfast, lunch, tea or dinner—No Onion No Garlic gives you fresh recipes as well as regular favourites with new permutations. Add this compilation to your collection of recipe books. Enjoy foods fit to offer a God.
