"The cookbook you gave me is great. I use it every time I cook. Easy to follow and ideal for Pujari cooking. Thank you". Your servant Murli Manohara Dasa Head Pujari, Radha-Londonisvara, Hare Krishna Temple, Soho, London. This book is a unique, practical, spiritual, pure vegetarian cookbook with beautiful colour pictures presented with contents, sub-contents and a glossary making it easy to follow. All the dishes are prepared as an offering with prayers to God, Lord Krishna, in His Deity form Sri Sri Radha-Gokulananda at midday (Raja Bhoga). The food becomes sanctified and is called maha prasadam (great mercy) and then distributed. You may say "not another vegetarian cookbook". However this is no ordinary vegetarian cookbook. These recipes have been kept secret for almost 40 years and some have originated from our Grand Spiritual Master His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Srila Prabhupada the Founder-Acharya of ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness). The recipes shown here have been tried and tested by the author who has cooked in the Deity kitchen for over 15 years. Also included is a special contribution from Mother Kulangana on the secrets to making her world renowned Sri Sri Radha-Gokulananda's magical milk sweets. This cookbook is a MUST for anyone interested in vegetarian cooking at its highest level. -
Learn about Ayurvedic and sattvic cooking principles used at the ISKCON Mumbai Ashram and Govinda's restaurant from former ISKCON monk and Yogiplate founder Radhavallabha Das. Ayurvedic diet varies by body type, a person's nature, their lifestyle and the food they grew up eating. In this book, we learn how to identify our unique body type, the vegetables, fruits, grains, and spices that will suit us, and how Sattvic food nourishes the body, mind and inner soul. Some food combinations can be toxic for a certain body type. In his simple style, Radhavallabha Das shows us how to pair the correct ingredients, avoid the ones that are harmful to us, and also focus on the oil, salt and water we cook with. This book will teach you how to tailor a unique diet that will nourish you to lead a happy and healthy life.
