Lets curry on cooking

My Culinary World

 Welcome to my vibrant culinary world, where tradition meets innovation. My passion for cooking was kindled in the bustling kitchens of my family's acclaimed Indian restaurant (The Brilliant in Southall), where age-old recipes have been passed down through generations. This is our flag-ship eatery where my father Gulu leads at the forefront and my brother Shanks and I continue the family tradition and strive to take the 'Brilliant' name even further. As a chef, author, and culinary instructor, I extend a warm invitation to food enthusiasts to explore my diverse array of recipes, cooking classes, and gastronomic insights. Explore the site to discover mouth-watering recipes, engaging cooking tutorials, my latest projects and collaborations, an insight into my cookery school and also my very own e-shop. Welcome to a world where every dish tells a story.

Cookery School

 In my Southall restaurant, I host cooking classes aimed at sharing Punjabi culinary traditions. Led by me and often assisted by my father Gulu, these classes provide hands-on experience with iconic dishes like biryani and tandoori chicken tikka. With a focus on history and personal anecdotes, these three-hour sessions offer insights into spices and culinary secrets. Open to the public on weekend afternoons, participants take home what they cook. Private courses are also available for customized experiences. My aim is for students to gain a deeper appreciation for Indian cuisine and confidently replicate these flavours in their own kitchens.

Dipna and Dad

 

Alongside my dad, Gulu, we've become a dynamic duo in the Indian culinary scene. Our quirky videos on social media bring laughter and insight into our kitchen adventures, while our frequent TV appearances have made our banter famous. Dad isn't just my role model; he's my everything. His hard work and dedication have shaped me into the chef I am today, and I turn to him for guidance and inspiration every step of the way. Beyond running our restaurant in Southall, Dad's commitment to our community is unwavering. Whether we're hosting pop-ups, teaching cookery courses, or collaborating on exciting projects, we do it together. My ultimate goal? To make him proud every single day.
