About the Author

Vina Patel grew up in Gujarat, watching her grandmother and mother cook a variety of exotic and exciting vegetarian food. After moving to Northern California from India, she was dismayed by the western world's use of processed food and frozen, pre-packaged foods. Vina was determined to bring Gujarati food to the world's kitchens. Silicon Valley, where she lives, has a large community of Indian immigrants and Vina became somewhat of a cooking sensation in social circles and community gatherings for those craving their home cuisine. To this day, she regularly hosts Diwali celebrations, dinner parties, and cooking lessons. In 2021, she published her first Gujarati cook book, From Gujarat with Love, published by HarperCollins. This is her second cookbook.
