From mid-week meals to slow Sundays, MISARANA is full of recipes for all kinds of budgets and schedules, brought to life with vibrancy, panache and spice (we’re talking Delhi street-style bread omelette, Keralan mussels, Burnt aubergine cakes with lime pickle and Chicken Pista Walla pie). You’ll learn to view Indian flavours as a vital foundation of home cooking, stimulating your senses and expanding your repertoire with endless variations of exciting, everyday food.
