INDIAN FOOD FROM MY CHILDHOOD SHARED WITH YOU
I am a food snob regarding Indian cuisine. It’s why my heart sinks a little when friends invite me out for ‘an Indian’. I end up with food I tolerate. It is not up to scratch, mainly because of the way it is prepared.
i KNOW WHAT AUTHENTIC INDIAN
FOOD TASTES LIKE
It is what my mother gave to me – always prepared from scratch with the spices, vegetables, fish, meat and chicken she bought at Bull Ring market in Birmingham and the local Indian corner shop.
And I will be cooking for you just like my mother - but without the hard stares that she would throw my way if I did not finish every last morsel of the massive portions she lavished on me! She wasn't being mean - she showed her love for me through food so it was an emotional experience.
More than just a business
As an adult I came to understand where my mum was coming from. And Manika's Indian Kitchen is driven by the same passion and pride that I saw in her. (But no hard stares I promise!).
It's so very important to me that Manika's Indian Kitchen fulfills the culinary desires of my clients.
They are people who relish fresh, authentic Indian dishes. If you do too then I look forward to hearing from you. It will be my pleasure to use my passion, knowledge and experience to serve you.
