The launch of the ‘Just Kebabs’ by the chef Davinder Kumar, Le Meridien gives you an opportunity to enjoy the verities of kebabs. The book was unveiled by Vir Sanghvi, the editorial director of Hindustan Times at Desire, Le Meridien and also present on propitious event was S.Y Quraishi, the Election Commissioner, Government of India and Mrs. Charanjeet Singh, Head of Le Meridien and CMD of CJ International Hotels, Ms. Sharon Lowen- the famous odissi dancer. Just Kebabs is an introductory encyclopedia of scrumptious recipes of utmost kebabs.  The book was published by Shubhi Publications.

Gone are the days when we associated kebabs with the advent of the Mughals into India or kebabs originated in the Caucasus where mountain people speared meat pieces. ‘Just Kebabs’ is a repository of tempting kebabs reminiscing back in ancient Mughal era on today’s platter.

“The right ingredient at the right time is the secret of great taste in cooking. I love all 365 kebabs; it is like a mother favoring all her children equally. All the 365 recipes are different to cook but will definitely put an equal exclamation on your appetite. The success of my first book Kebabs, Chutneys and Breads inspired me to write this book,” said Davinder Kumar, author of Just Kebabs.

If Kebabs are not strictly limited to Mughals, it is not even restricted to non-vegetarians too. This book erases the myth that only non-vegetarians can enjoy the delectable kebab, the book salvages the vegetarians with its 127 exotic recipes of Veg kebabs. You can embrace different regions of India in your very kitchen.

The book even caters kebabs from regions like Punjab, Hyderabad and many more. The book is replete with useful cooking tips. Another important highlight is the detailed glossary that provides description of the ingredients.
