Cooking the Books with Gilly Smith

Roopa Gulati: Indian Kitchens


Listen Later

This week, we’re visiting the kitchens of everyday India to find the food behind closed doors with chef, food writer and broadcaster, Roopa Gulati,


Brought up in Cumbria, Roopa spent 20 years as a chef in Delhi before she came home to advise on Rick Stein’s India series for BBC2. She's a woman who knows how to find the story in everyday food, and Indian Kitchens is an extraordinary story behind the recipes of 12 different communities to find the food that makes up a nation.  


Bee Wilson raves about it, Tom Parker Bowles calls it a modern classic, Diana Henry  says, 'The recipes are pure gold.'  


Pop over to Gilly's Substack for Extra Bites of Roopa and the recipe for the lamb in ginger and orange from her food moments.
