30 Minute Mowgli

Fast Easy Indian from the Mowgli Home Kitchen


This is the food Nisha Katona cooks at home: punchy, delicious and taking you from couch to curry in 30 minutes or less. As always with Nisha’s dishes, the focus is on big, bold flavours - achieved in these recipes with speed, simplicity and improvisation to avoid waste. It’s the way Nisha cooks every day and it’s the way her grandmother and great-grandmother cooked with their small coal-fired stoves on Varanasi verandas.

Tantalize your tastebuds in 30 minutes or less with Quick Angry Tandoori or Mowgli Coleslaw Chicken Bowl, Ten-Minute Late-Night Kebabs or Keema Toasties, Bengali Fish Curry or Indian Fish Finger Sandwich, Rice Krispie Bhel Puri or Million Dollar Dahl.

This is food for real life: tasty and nutritious meals to whip up without fuss while juggling home, work and family.
