Description
Heena Patel is the Chef and co-owner of Besharam in San Francisco. Chef Patel talks about the inspiration she draws from her upbringing in Mumbai, and cooking vegetarian cuisine. She also talks about when to add spices so you don’t burn them, and how her version of culinary school was shadowing her mother, grandmother, aunts, and sisters in the kitchen. Her restaurant, Besharam, translates to “shameless” or “fearless.” This idea guides her everyday. The menu is filled with dishes that she loves and that represent her personal approach to cooking.
Chef Patel demonstrates how to make ragda, which is a white pea curry used in many Indian street foods. She tops the ragda with potato patties, mint and cilantro chutney, tart and spicy date and tamarind chutney, and crispy sev.
