WIN $150 GIFT VOUCHERS: ALADDIN'S GOLD
Born to vegetarian parents, Sanjana has followed a lacto-vegetarian diet her whole life. From her home in Buckinghamshire, she has seen a visible shift in the Western understanding of what Indian food is. It's gone from curry-house creations, to an exploration of regional food, to fusion cuisine and more recently, an appreciation of street food and casual dining. Today, Indian food is a cacophony of all these elements and more, and Sanjana is forging yet another new direction with the food of diasporic communities, and the flavours of a new generation. She is the winner of a SHE Award for Outstanding Culinary Skills, and was a 2021 Finalist for Asian Media Awards Best Blog.
