At the heart of this cookbook is an 85-year-old grand lady, Mrs. Subhadra Rau Parigi, affectionately known as Pedatha (a Telugu term for "grand aunt"). Her story is as fascinating as her cooking; she is the eldest daughter of India's former President, Bharat Ratna Dr. V.V. Giri. Despite this illustrious background, Pedatha's life was centered around her passion for cooking. Her recipes were the stuff of legend, much sought-after by friends and relatives who would relish her traditional fare.
"Cooking at Home with Pedatha" is a must-have for anyone wishing to explore the soul of South Indian cuisine beyond the generic "Dosa and Idli." It is a beautifully photographed, lovingly written Cooking at Home with Pedatha.pdf
