Kaveri Sahay Prasad

History, 2002

I am a soft skills trainer living in Bengaluru. My roots are in Patna and Delhi. I had the privilege of growing up across different cultures as my father worked for a pan-India organisation; my interest in food culture stems from this and my father’s fondness for road trips.  LSR taught me to deconstruct and simplify; I apply these principles to food that are new to me: be it kokum meen curry or za'atar bread or kwanti! I inherit my knowledge around food from my dadi, nani, parents and parents-in-law, my mother being a strong influencer for the nutrition bit. My life is enriched with reading and playing with family, music, creative writing, and ideas around waste management!
