Episode Synopsis

In this deliciously insightful episode of Kitchen Tales, Colline and Rhona are joined by Sasi Krishnan of Sasi Samyal, an expert in authentic South Indian cooking. Sasi shares her culinary journey from Chennai to Newbury and challenges the common misconception that all Indian food is simply “curry.” Her passion for food is rooted not only in tradition but also in a holistic approach that incorporates fresh ingredients, energy, and intention in the kitchen.Together, they explore the importance of breakfast, how switching from tinned to dried chickpeas transformed Colline’s cooking, and why cooking is about more than just feeding—it’s about connecting. Sasi reveals the joy and versatility behind dishes like dosa and biryani, why rice flakes (poha) are a game-changer for health-conscious eaters, and how her online classes make South Indian cooking accessible to anyone, anywhere.As always, the episode ends with what each of them is making for dinner—from masala dosa to Thai green curry to a speedy midweek stir-fry.
