About this episode

Co-hosts Tiffany Eslick and Devina Divecha are at on-location with tasty servings of bun maska and chai at Khadak in Jumeirah to hear all about Chef Naved Nasir's journey from giving up studying medicine for hotel management, and spending a decade with ITC in India before moving to the UK to help develop Dishoom. In 2021, he launched Khadak in Dubai with a menu developed from memories, family recipes and his travels across India.

For Chef Naved, food is a very good memory from a forgotten world that needs to be preserved.

Don’t forget, six of Khadak’s signature recipes are at Spinneys all this month atthe Chef’s Counter—jackfruit haleem, dal makhani, butter chicken and salli boti at our hot counters, and the pav bhajji and keema puff at our Spinneys’ cafes.
