Biting Biting
Biting Biting is a celebration of this delicious family custom, and of the food of the Gujarati diaspora in Africa and in the UK. Take a trip into the world of Gujarati-style snacking and discover savoury bitings. Extremely tasty, quick and easy to prepare these snacks will set your tastebuds buzzing.
Biting Biting features recipes for fast, easy, 100% vegetarian and vegan snacks that can be quickly prepared using leftovers and store-cupboard ingredients.
Enter a world of Gujarati-style snacking, where nothing is wasted and every recipe can transform into a variety of snacks. A simple Potato Shaak (or curry) can be repurposed as a samosa, served up on toast with an egg, or stuffed into a parotha or flatbread.
Even if you have nothing in the cupboard but a tin of baked beans, you can make Baked Bean Curry. Or why not try revolutionising your lunch with Cumin-spiced Cheese on Toast or the Cheese & Chevro (or Bombay Mix) Sandwich?
Discover more classic 'bitings' such as Reveya (Peanut Stuffed Aubergine) and Patta Ganthiya (gram flour crispbreads), alongside her uncle's legendary BBQ Green Bananas, a full chapter of bhajiya (pakora), and some suggestions for delicious Sweet Biting.
With fresh chutneys you can make in moments using a blender and advice on what to keep in your fridge for optimum ingredients for Biting, you will never be stuck for a snack again.
