Ajay Mago, Publisher at Om Books International also commented on the book saying “In this day and age, with a sea change in our lifestyles, we often rue the loss of family recipes. Shazia’s book is not only a befitting homage to the traditional recipes bequeathed to her by her grandmother, mother, mother-in-law and other keepers of kitchen secrets, but she enriches the book with a cross-section of recipes that are her personal favorites and to which she has added her special touch. Nowadays, the book that I invariably carry to the kitchen is What’s On The Menu, and no prizes for guessing why.””

The cook book includes recipes for Khan’s signature Tandoori Chicken Roulade and Grilled Semolina with Mushroom as well as desserts like Shahi Tudka, Fruit Bites and Egg Halwa.
