Tarla Dalal (3 June 1936 – 6 November 2013) was an Indian food writer, chef, cookbook author and host of cooking shows.[1][2] Her first cook book, The Pleasures of Vegetarian Cooking, was published in 1974. Since then, she wrote over 100 books and sold more than 10 million copies. She also ran the largest Indian food web site, and published a bi-monthly magazine, Cooking & More. Her cooking shows included The Tarla Dalal Show and Cook It Up With Tarla Dalal. Her recipes were published in about 25 magazines and tried in an estimated 120 million Indian homes.[3]
Though she wrote about many cuisines and healthy cooking, she specialized in vegetarian Indian cuisine, particularly Gujarati cuisine.[4] She was awarded the Padma Shri by Government of India in 2007,[5] which made her the only Indian woman from the field of cooking to have been conferred the title.[6] She was also awarded Women of the Year by Indian Merchants' Chamber in 2005.[7]
She died on 6 November 2013 following a heart attack.[8]
