Jimi and Alison meet Asma Khan, the groundbreaking chef using food to make the world a better place. The founder of London restaurant Darjeeling Express, where home-style Indian dishes are cooked by a team of women, Asma is passionate about championing sidelined communities. She explains why food can help us connect with each other ­– and why you’ll never find okra fries on her menu.
