Written for someone who has never cooked

  • The flame on every step

    No flame, low, medium or high, with the whistle count for the pressure cooker. Nothing is left to “cook until done”.

  • The time, and what it looks like

    Each step says how long it takes, and an “it is ready when” box tells you what to look for before you move on.

  • Measured for two

    Cups and spoons with grams beside them, for exactly two people, and how to scale it for one or three.

  • Protein, kcal and cost

    Worked out from the ingredient quantities on the page, with the cost of cooking it for two at the book’s stated prices.

Honest numbers

What we promise, and what we will not

Fitness food is full of hype. These books are practical cooking first, and every figure in them can be checked.

  • Worked out, not guessed

    Protein, kcal and cost come from the listed quantities. If a value cannot be worked out reliably, it is left out.

  • No miracle claims

    No dish “builds muscle” or “burns fat”. What you get from food depends on your whole diet, training, sleep and health.

  • No universal target

    Needs differ from person to person. Where a book uses a number, it says what it assumes. Medical questions go to a doctor.

  • Drawn, not photographed

    Every dish picture is an illustration and says so. We never pass off a generated image as a photo of a tested dish.

What is in the set

Before you buy

What exactly do I get?

The books are sold only as the set.

I have never cooked. Will I manage?

Yes, that is who the books are written for. Every step names the flame level and the time, and says what the food should look like before you move on. The 30-day book starts with basic recipes (rice, chapatis, boiled eggs, dal in the pressure cooker, tempering) that the rest of the book builds on.

What kitchen do I need?

Mostly a gas stove, a pressure cooker, a kadai and a flat pan; a blender is optional and every blender recipe has a no-blender method. The 30-day book needs no mixer and no oven, and the Hostel and PG book is written for an induction plate, a rice cooker and a kettle instead. Each book states its kitchen on its page.

Will these books make me gain muscle or lose weight?

No book can promise that, and ours do not. They give you protein-rich, filling home food with honest figures, so you can plan what you eat. What it does for your body depends on your whole diet, training, recovery, sleep and health. For a medical condition, a food allergy, pregnancy or an eating disorder, talk to a doctor or a registered dietitian.

Is there a book for vegetarians, or for people who skip onion and garlic?

Yes. The Vegetarian Protein Kitchen has no meat and no eggs, and the Sattvic Protein Kitchen cooks every recipe without onion and garlic, with Jain-friendly recipes marked. Every recipe in every book carries a veg, egg or non-veg mark.

Where do the protein and calorie figures come from?

They are worked out from the ingredient quantities in each recipe. From Book 2 on, every nutrition value comes from the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR-NIN) or USDA FoodData Central. The 30-day book uses typical values per ingredient. The figures on this website are read from the finished PDFs, so they match what you download.
