Priya Ramasubban

Priya Ramasubban is a filmmaker who is actively involved in local community issues. Inside the home she subjects her guinea pigs ... errr ... family to home-cooked food from all over the world. Here she shares some 'peasant-food' recipes from parts of the world that most Indians don't normally come across because she likes simple food more than fancy food and thinks they are more authentic. Though the dishes are not well known, the ingredients are all available locally. She is a self-proclaimed lazy cook so she has figured out the easiest way to make these dishes with a few twists while retaining their original taste and texture.
