A Treasure Trove of Goan Mango Dishes
₹165Swing with Mango Dishes..
Goans have refined the culinary art through a unique blend of the culinary wisdom of the East and West. The dishes included in this treasure trove will reflect the romance of Goans with the mango in the kitchen. With art learnt through family traditions, Nilima has taken care to simplify the mango preparations making them user friendly and easy to master. You’ll love to learn more about the magic of mangoes appealing to your taste buds once you try the recipes in this book.
Goan mango varieties are famous for their taste and flavour and have attracted worldwide attention. The British Captain Alexander Hamilton (in 1727), a visitor to Portuguese Goa, wrote, ‘The Goan mango is reckoned the largest and the best tasted of any fruit in the world’.
This is a recipe book with a strong academic flavour. Not only does the author give us an amazing range of mango recipes, she also puts in context the importance, history, and nutritional value of the mango fruit.
As a recipe book alone it is amazing. Who would have thought that 22 varieties of desert from the mango fruit? Or that it’s possible to make 15 types of chutneys and sauces? All this and more is indeed very practical.
To name a few you can make kulfi, curd-sweet, ice-cream, pudding, jam and a chewing-block (sath) of mango, and also a mango-cashew delight! A book worth stocking at every home, both in one’s personal library and near the kitchen.

Dr. Wilfred De Souza :A Journey With An Exceptional Leader of Goa (With Life Video Documentary)
₹1,950Dr. Wilfred De Souza
A Jorney With An Exceptional Leader of Goa
Dr. Wilfred Anthony De Souza (1927) has been a prominent and exceptional politician of Goa. His political career has spanned over a period of forty years in which he has been the Chief Minister of Goa three times and for most of his political career, he has held a variety of ministerial portfolios. Dr. Willy, as he is popularly known, is a household name in Goa and in the Goan Diaspora. As a B.C. Roy Awardee, the highest honour for Medicine and Statesmanship in India, he has singlehandedly, dominated the political establishment for half a century since the Liberation of Goa from the Portuguese rule.
The protagonist plays a double role: privately, as a family man with a medical profession and publicly, as a volatile and robust politician. Being a highly respected surgeon and an equally controversial politician, his life is packed with incidents and episodes which are tied up with the real life and political existence of the people of Goa. His actions of political upheavals, toppling and reinstating governments, liaison and partnership with the top leaders, Presidents, Governors, Chief Ministers, International Leaders, Diplomats, Bureaucrats and businessmen, are irresistible. He played a singular role in achieving Statehood for Goa and making Konkani its official language. At 84, he is still very active and is an undiminished political force in the State.
The work has been fashioned to read like a novel, shorn of all the pretences of a biography. It is a dialogue.It is fully authentic. The dialogue is based on the actual conversation the author had with his central character.
Each chapter is ensconced – in the beginning and at the end – in a thought provoking social and political environment. It provides the right atmosphere for debate by the intelligentsia.
Wilfred De Souza’s life may be described as colourful and controversial. But even his worst detractors vouch for him being a clean and honest politician of Goa. His life can have lessons for individuals as well as organizations.
