GUJARAT: THE CULINARY JEWEL OF
INDIA

Cuisine from the West Coast of India: Best Recipes from India

Gujarati cuisine captures the regions combination of sweet, spicy, sour and packed with flavour

My New Cookbook

The Spice Collector’s Cookbook compiles 80 original recipes from around the world, perfected by the author as she adds her native Indian flavour, flair and perfectionism. This is the cookbook to break you out of your usual cooking habits and introduce you to bold new flavors and ideas. There are authentic regional recipes, and fusion concoctions that break all the rules – all in the name of flavor!

Traveling is Vina Patel’s favorite hobby. She has been fortunate enough to discover over 34 countries โ€“ and counting! โ€“ and she loves trying new, authentic cuisines in every place. If her family end up liking something, sheโ€™ll come home, master the recipe, but make it healthier, easier, and faster to make while retaining its delicious, unique taste. While embarking on this personal culinary journey that spans many, many years, Vina not only realized the true essence of her own (traditionally Gujarati) cooking skills, but she discovered and perfected cuisines from all over the globe. This cookbook brings together those lessons.

Hi I'm Vina!

Iโ€™m a cookbook author and culinary enthusiast with a deep-rooted love for Indian cuisine. I was born in Gujarat, where I grew up watching my father run a spice shop. Gujarati cuisine captures the region’s combination of sweet, spicy, sour, and packed with flavour. I teach simple Gujarati cooking recipes to make light, healthy, delicious family meals
