I should have known better and double checked, as these kinds of conversion typos are common and I usually stick to the British/weight measurement.

Asma is the first British chef to appear on Netflix’s award-winning series Chef’s Table (Season 6, February 2019).When one is reviewing a cook book, one usually tries to make 2 or 3 recipes from the book, but with this one I decided to go all out. Award-winning restaurant Darjeeling Express began life as a dinner party with friends; Indian food lovingly cooked from family recipes that go back generations. Sie unterstützt Projekte, die diese Frauen ermutigen aus dem Schatten zu treten und ihren eigenen Weg zu gehen. This book includes a wide and diverse range of food, from Indian dishes with a twist to Western delicacies.

After training as a lawyer Asma registered for a food business, which began life as a supper club in her home in Kensington.Asma was voted ‘Female Entrepreneur of the Year’ at the Asian Restaurant Awards 2018, as well as ‘Entrepreneur of the Year’ at the Asian Women of the Year Awards. Over time, as she travelled back to her ancestral kitchens, Asma learned recipes that had been in her family for four generations. I saw Asma on chef's table and was inspired and uplifted by her story and I couldn't wait for this book to come out. Asma’s Indian Kitchen is a beautiful book; its cover in the style of a retro Bollywood film, embellished with gold leaf like a festive sweetmeat (perhaps one of the laddoos its author loves so dearly); its pages littered with evocative images of India by true talent and all-round good egg Ming Tang Evans.

Let Asma Khan, founder of Darjeeling Express feed your soul with this collection of authentic home-cooked Indian recipes. The menu suggestions are a great idea and section, and a range of recipes for all diets and skill levels.Since I read cookbooks like novels and Asma loves to tell stories, I think I need to pick up this book. So when she opened her London restaurant, the first name that came to mind was that of this glorious train. The book is more than just a collection of delicious and accessible recipes, it is a celebration of heritage, culture, community and quality.
