Tamila

The Cookbook




The much-anticipated first cookbook from the team behind the Tamil Prince, Tamil Crown and Tamila has arrived.

A brilliant and thoughtful collection of recipes from chef-owner Elavarasan ‘Prince’ Durairaj that allows you to bring some of the magic of Tamila into your own kitchen. These are Southern Indian dishes with a twist, packed with familiar favourites, fiery feasts and ferocious flavour from the new face of South Indian cuisine in London.

Chapters include Dosa, Thali, Curries, Grills, Breads, Chutneys, Feasts, Desserts and Drinks with a variety of meat, fish and vegetarian options to choose from. Discover dishes such as Lime Leaf Roasted Chicken and Paneer Butter Masala — as well as how to create your own Thali feast at home.

This is a celebration of classic curry houses, heritage and Indian street food: a flavour-packed adventure where South Asian cooking is re-discovered.
