Parsis are a small ethnic religious group of people who are a minority of prominence. Having settled in India since the last 1300 years after the fall of the Persian Empire they have continued to follow one of the oldest religions in the world, which is Zoroastrianism. The community is mostly concentrated in Mumbai, the capital city of the state of Maharashtra and in other states of India like Gujarat, Delhi and Andhra Pradesh. Many small groups are also scattered over different parts of the world.
Over the years the Parsis have adapted to the Indian tastes and cultures that has helped them develop their own unique style of cooking to suit their palates.
This book is written with the intention of introducing a new comer and an old hand at cooking to the different tastes of Indian Parsi food.
I was motivated to write this for the people who are willing to try their hand at preparing good, tasty, everyday Parsi food and a few delicacies too.
