It’s the year of Tarla Dalal. A decade after India lost its culinary queen, a movie was made this July to honour her legacy. And now, her daughter, Renu Dalal has come up with a cookbook, Recipes From My Heart, her third, honouring her mother’s heritage and taking her legacy forward, in her way. “It’s a matter of pride for the family,” she tells us over the phone, “The movie depicts her life and how she created so many recipes, was a good mother to three children and the [pillar of] support to my dad, and how she made vegetarian food exquisite is a matter of pride for us.”
