What materialised was a playful approach to the world’s larder, and Ravinder’s recipes do indeed have a rebellious soul.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThey are lawless concoctions that draw their influences from one tradition and then another – Cauliflower Popcorn with Black Vinegar Dipping Sauce; Spicy Aubergine Salad with Peanuts, Herbs and Jaggery Fox Nuts; Skate with Lime Pickle Brown Butter; Tempura Samphire and Nori; Lamb and Aubergine Fatteh; or utterly irresistible Banana Cake accompanied by Miso Butterscotch and Ovaltine Kulfi. These proudly inauthentic recipes are what you might loosely call ‘immigrant cuisine’, with evocative stories from a past that illustrates the powerful relationship between food, people, place and identity. The tastes and smells of this brazen new world are sophisticated, welcoming, fresh, exciting and bold.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ravinder Bhogal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62209557725571,"sku":"9781526601445","price":26.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/8600\/8738\/files\/9781529077780_63.jpg?v=1785241707","url":"https:\/\/rarebirdsbooks.pro\/products\/jikoni-proudly-inauthentic-recipes-from-an-immigrant-kitchen","provider":"Rare Birds Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
