• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

The latest Indian cookbook I bought was this one: 660 Indian curries
It's a huge book but covers absolutely everything. The author came to the USA from India, worked in restaurants for years, and then wrote this book. I've probably made a couple of dozen of these recipes so far and they've all turned out really, really well.

Been looking at getting that one.
Maybe one day...
Other rec for Indian food & curry book are any of the Madhur Jafray books

660 curries has only imperial measurements
Madhur is normally metric
 
That's the only drawback, but I convert every recipe I use to grammes.
It's why I want the book, not the kindle version, at least then I can add notes on little sticky papers...

Just though of another pretty good book if you don't mind not too many pictures
