Which I never thought of until you thought it up, and don't mind at all, but I REALLY hope it's not because the company thinks we only want to see "younger, sexier Nigella", and that Nigella is only marketable when frozen in time 😡🤢. I like her whenever and all the same.

@asmitachatterjee8979 2 жыл бұрын

In Indian cooking, you are supposed to put all the seeds into the oil first. Putting them on top of the veggie doesn't bring the flavour out. Seeds spices give out their flavour in hot oil, the tempering (tadka) is what gives Indian food its flavour.

I love that Nigella cannot kick her “Indian” food habit!! I have yet to meet anyone who can walk away from the smell of an Indian dish cooking (any region…our region is Bengal)…I similarly cannot eat breakfast eggs without proper mango chutney.

I agree with the other viewers. Those Indian spices MUST be tempered in a pan with oil or ghee and then add the potatoes. Mustard seed like that is inedible. She flies by the seat of her pants and the producer thinks it will go unnoticed. 🎱
