  • chilliandmintSo excited to start to cooking from #NilouferMavalvala new cook book 'The Art of Parsi Cooking - reviving an ancient cuisine'. ✨Great book launch ✨I particularly enjoyed the khatai biscuits and spiced coriander and cucumber sandwiches.

Dear Niloufer
Just a very quick note to say how nice it was to meet you, your mum and Adil again. I hope you were happy with the launch and that you did well.
I was looking at the book and will try your chutney recipe- I don't put green mangoes in my chutney so will give it a go. I tried your chutney sandwiches- delicious- and my huband immediately asked me why I didn't bring any for him! I shall let you know it turns out and more especially I want to try out the batasas - do you have a good recipe for par par biscuits by any chance?I would love it if you have.

I hope your book is very successful

All best wishes .........
