Camellia Panjabi Book
I managed to track down the latest revised and updated copy of
Camellia Panjabi's "50 Great Curries of India" I got it for £4.99 in
"The Works" in Colchester. It was still in it's shrink wrap and had
the DVD enclosed; the blurb on the front says it is "Revised and
update with 10 new recipes and new photography..."
Well I eagerly got it home and unwrapped it and found no new recipes.
the photos accompanying the recipes remain the same as the last
version although in the introduction and the text prior to the recipes
there are a few new photos.
I will have a closer inspection and see if the typos on the recipes
have been ammended and report back.

The Parsee Red Chicken Curry has been revised and there are now six
individual steps to cooking the curry as opposed to the original
three. I notice that the amount of cooking fluid has also been
increased.
The recipe for Lamb Korma Pilaf has not been revised. It still calls
for Turmeric to be used in the cooking of the rice however this spice
is not listed in the rice ingredients.
There has been no revision to the Rogan Josh recipe. The water that
the lamb has been simmered in is reserved but is never asked for
again. Water is added at a later stage and I guess that is when the
reserved liquid should be added.
The recipe for the Chicken Stew has been revised and now advises when
to add the blended onions and chillies that were previously omitted.
So really a poor showing for a book that boasts of selling more that
800,000 copies. After three issues it still cannot get the recipes
correct. I do however like the book and have sufficient experience of
cooking curry to know how to overcome the typos and omissions. It does
make me wonder if I would buy another book by the publishers, Kyle
Cathie Limited. Not only does this reflect badly on their ability to
publish a book that is correctly proof read, but to fail to do it
after I had taken the time to contact them and advise them of the
errors after the last issue is a really poor showing.
