KEY TAKEAWAYS
- I have a passion for cooking and it's what excites me
- Being in a professional kitchen is an intensive experience
- Street food markets are popping up all over London but it can be really difficult to get a location
- With a mango tree, you can graft on branches from different varieties and end up with a single tree with over 300 different varieties of mangos
- Fermenting is an incredible world of flavours created using everyday ingredients like salt and koji
- With Koji, it's the fungus that kickstarts the starches and proteins in the rice with enzymes that then bring the flavour
- I'm working with other restaurants to incorporate these fermented products into their style of cooking
- I learnt about basic fermentation early on but have developed and extended my knowledge much further
- People who are experts are very happy to share their expertise and knowledge
- My style of food is very cross-cultural and is the cuisine of London inspired by all the different communities and the many places I have travelled across the world along with my Indian heritage
- It's all about the right ingredients and creating great flavours
