In her cookbook Amrikan, Khushbu Shah explores what Indian food means in America, merging cultural identity with diverse recipes that challenge traditional norms.
Shah emphasizes that food is inherently intersectional, reflecting diverse identities and experiences. Her writing illustrates how cuisine can serve as a lens to understand culture.
The recipes in Amrikan, such as saag paneer lasagna and panipuri mojitos, not only appeal to taste but also highlight the fusion of Indian cuisine with American culture.
Through essays and images, Shah connects food and identity, inviting readers to consider the deeper meanings behind the dishes, beyond mere ingredients.
