“For me, food became a huge part of who I was and my identify. It gave me a way to deal with my homesickness when I moved away from home and food reminded me of my journey – past and present. And that was comforting.”CulturallyOurs Indian Home Cooked Food With Bhavna KalraI am super thrilled to welcome Bhavna Kalra, a fellow Bombay girl and an Australian Indian to the CulturallyOurs podcast. Bhavna and I met in Sydney in 2019 and I was immediately enthralled by this incredibly talented home cook, career woman and entrepreneur. Bhavna runs a company called The Modern Desi Co where she aims to connect cultures through food.CulturallyOurs Indian Home Cooked Food With Bhavna KalraBhavna and I chatted about all things Indian food and more specifically home cooked Indian food – ghar ka khanna – as she called it. She shared her food journey and all the various Indian cuisines that have been a part of her childhood and life. She said, ‘Almost no one in world has ever tasted all the different sub-cuisines of Indian food that exist in India”. And that is so true. Indian cuisine is so much more than just curry and butter chicken and we get deep into some of her favorites.CulturallyOurs Indian Home Cooked Food With Bhavna KalraIt was such a delight to speak with Bhavna and even with almost 17 hours time difference between the two of us, we made it work and had a blast talking about India, Indian cuisines and Bhavna’s food journey. I know you are going to enjoy getting to know her on this episode of CulturallyOurs.
