In Partial Praise Of The British National Dish

I suppose that I can understand how chicken tikka masala became "the national dish" of Great Britain, but to be perfectly honest, I prefer plain chicken tikka; masala sauce just seems to be an impediment to enjoying a better dish. I am certainly pleased that the Persian origins of many an Indian dish are noted; those who have yet to enjoy the delights of Persian cuisine are missing out something fierce.

And yes, buy the book.
