Description

UK MasterChef champion Eddie Scott is best known for transforming simple European classics with a blend of Indian spices. In Misarana, he draws upon his unique heritage and favourite foodie memories, such as long summer holidays camping with his teacher parents in France and cooking amazing homemade food with his Punjabi grandparents, to create a collection of inspirational, yet relatable dishes.

From UK MasterChef champion Eddie Scott comes Misarana—a collection of everyday European meals brought to life with a blend of Indian spices. Best known for his maximum impact, minimal effort meals, Eddie Scott won the competition and adoration of the public with his heartfelt approach to food. In Misarana, which translates as fusion in Punjabi, he draws upon his unique memories and heritage, cooking amazing homemade meals with his grandparents, eating in bustling French bistros on family holidays, visiting the vibrant street food stalls in India, and travelling the world as a Marine Pilot, to create a collection of inspirational, yet relatable dishes.

From mid-week meals to slow Sundays, Misarana is full of recipes for all kinds of budgets and schedules, brought to life with vibrancy, panache, and spice. We're talking Delhi street-style bread omelette to Keralan mussels, burnt aubergine cakes with lime pickle to Chicken Pista Walla pie.

You'll learn to view Indian flavours as a vital foundation of home cooking, stimulating your senses and expanding your repertoire with endless variations of exciting, everyday food.

Recipes include:

Tandoori butter trout with ginger and lime greens
Goan vindaloo pulled pork buns with apple fennel slaw
Punjabi spinach and goat's cheese tart
Puducherry bouillabaisse
Kolkata tacos
Lamb rogan chops
New Delhi baked cheesecake
Spiced chai chocolate mousse with poached prunes

About the Author

Eddie Scott's first memories were spent in the kitchen: he grew up in a family who loved to cook great food. Childhood summer holidays were spent touring around France and it was on these adventures that Eddie discovered his love of classic regional French cuisine. Holidays were spent eating real food in cafeterias and workers cafés; where locals ate! Eddie was astounded at the variety of brilliant ingredients and the culture of food in France. His teenage years were spent teaching himself a repertoire of classic dishes and recreating his holidays at home, ranging from Sole à La Meunière to Île Flottante.

Eddie's cooking is also inspired by his family's Indian, Punjabi heritage. His grandparents, both skilled cooks taught him the basics of Punjabi cuisine and the art of cooking with spice. You will often find an exciting Indian twist in his classically inspired food. Eddie is particularly passionate about the Royal Mughlai cuisines of India and has spent years perfecting his Hyderabadi biryani.
In 2022, Eddie fulfilled a life cooking ambition, becoming MasterChefUK Champion, where he got to showcase his signature style. He leaves behind a successful career as a Marine Pilot, to embark on a new and exciting life in food. Since winning Masterchef, he has worked at The Pipe and Glass in Beverley and Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in London, and went on a big trip to India, eating his way around Mumbai, Kerala, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Lucknow and Delhi.
