Welcome, once again, to Book Quarterly Trivia Week! In case you missed it, this week's City Paper focuses on food in a big way: Our two favorite home cooks/CP writers, Justin Bauer and Char Vandermeer, have been hitting the (cook)books for weeks, finding recipes that work and avoiding ones that don't. All this talk of cooking made us want to kick off this edition of BQTW with a cookbook giveaway. At Home with Madhur Jaffrey: Simple, Delectable Dishes from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka is a simple, lovely hardbound tome full of bright photos and simple-to-follow recipes (unlike Pushpesh Pant's India, which Justin and Char said was excellent for a seasoned chef but might be an uphill battle for an Indian cuisine newbie). To win a copy, answer the following trivia question:

Aside from cooking, Madhur Jaffrey is also a well-known actress. For what film did she win a Silver Bear award in 1965?

E-mail your answers to carolyn.huckabay@citypaper.net for a chance to win, and check back Monday for more giveaways!
