The Spice Route: 1

For Shipra Khanna, life imitates food, and vice versa. And in both life and food, it is the simple things that can be beautiful and uplifting. This is the mantra she lives by, and it is the theme that this MasterChef winner from humble beginnings explores in her maiden cookbook. In Spice Route, Shipra explores different regions and different cuisines, bringing some old favourites and some new discoveries but all packed with loads of flavour. It was her innovativeness that blew away the MasterChef judges, and it is what she brings to the recipes in the book as well. As she retraces a new spice route for herself, Shipra recommends only one thing: try, try and try again. Because what is life, or food, unless you experience it?
