Can you be our Nani please?
Madhur Jaffrey the real OG.
|
We came across this video by Mr. Cardamom and fell in love with the song, the styling and by far the presence of this legend Madhur Jaffrey. She’s the Nani of our dreams. A Delhi native, Jaffrey started her work as an actor but got tired of being type cast into the “Arabian, Exotic lady” and wasn’t here for it. |
|
Eventually through building her friends and community in New York City, a New York Times article opened up her fabulous doors to schooling Americans about the truths about Indian cuisine. She wrote a trailblazing cookbook, “An Invitation to Indian Cooking” with the mission of opening up eyes and palettes to the diversity and regions that make up the undeniable cuisines of India. With her on screen camera skills on lock, Jaffrey landed a BBC cooking show where she sported the slickest sarees, educated the viewers on the basics of “tarka” and lit up the screen. |
Inspired by India,
made for the world.
