Rene Subash grew up in a South Indian family, where ‘There’s rice at home’ was a much-used phrase, and nearly every meal included rice in at least one shape or form. She has travelled all over the world to discover how rice is prepared in myriad different ways and has consequently created stunningly simple recipes we can cook at home. This is a single subject cookbook with heart and soul and the ONLY cookbook you need to improve your rice repertoire.
