Mother Tongue

Filled with vibrant and lively recipes, Mother Tongue celebrates and explores the multitudes of second-generation British-Indian identity through food.

 Mother Tongue explores what happens when your culinary education combines 'authentic' home-cooked Punjabi food, with 'inauthentic' curry-house Tikka Masalas, the European foodie cannon, and a wanderlust for travel in pursuit of flavour, each in equal measure. The result is a hybrid cuisine that exists in the middle-ground as a delicious self-expression of British-Indian identity today - characterised by ingredient combinations that inhabit the grey areas in between so-called cultural boundaries.
