June 28, 2022 by JennyEnter our worldwide giveaway to win one of two copies of Ayla: A Feast of Nepali Dishes from Terai, Hills and Himalayas by Santosh Shah.
Ayla: A Feast of Nepali Dishes from Terai, Hills and Himalayas by Santosh Shah explores and experiments with the spices and flavors of Nepal with a range of recipes, perfect for both the beginner and experienced home cook.
Santosh Shah is an experienced chef, who has worked in high-brow restaurants for years, including Cinnamon Kitchen and Michelin-starred Benares. He competed on the UK’s most prestigious cookery competition, Masterchef: The Professionals, coming in second place.
