Anyone recommend a good Indian cookbook? I want to make some delicious veg curry goodness this week.

I know I'm boring, but I always recommend the RASA cookbooks by Das Sreedharan.

Copying from an old post (from the Vegan Thread, hence the vegan angle):

I always recommend the first two RASA cookbooks. The first one is omnivorous and the second one is ovo-lacto vegetarian, but most recipes are very easy to do vegan, and there are plenty of vegan ones to start with. It's a superb style of cuisine.

The two I mean are 'Fresh Flavours of India' and 'The New Taste of India'. No need to bother with the others (they're simplified, omnivorous, and not as good).

If you're in London, you could do worse than visit RASA N16 first to see if you like this style of cooking.

Back when I first went there, in early 1997, it showed me how good vegetarian cuisine could be. I went vegan two years later.

The eatyourbooks link above has both of them in various editions.
