But Gurpareet's creativity extends far beyond this one celebrated dish to an extensive and life-changing collection of recipes geared towards eating much more healthily. Recognising the exceptional health-promoting properties of combining western super foods with Asian super spices, whilst at the same time tapping into the world's enduring love affair with curry, Gurpareet sets out to inform us about how each recipe in this wonderful collection - via high antioxidant levels, cardiovascular health benefits and a myriad of curative properties - will help to improve our health and wellbeing.
