Shownotes Transcript

Today's episode is packed with recipes from Khushbu Shah's new cookbook,* Amrikan*. But beyond that, it's also a conversation with the author and Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes about how Indian cuisine has changed with new generations living in diaspora, and how that has led to the introduction of some unlikely ingredients – cream cheese, pickled jalapeños, shokupan — to shake up traditional dishes.
