Thanks for your brilliant recipes, Mallika. I always enjoy reading them. And thanks, especially, for pointing out the stupid sexism in the way mothers are spoken about and to. Food blogs aren’t always the best place to find women wanting to stand up to the reductive mommy rhetoric. It’s great to see. Keep it up!

With many spices, I bet that this recipe is a sure fire and totally delicious.

We are always running ourselves into knots trying to be politically correct! And these labels… they all become labels after a point, dont they? Like Stay-at-home-wife/mum – wasnt that coined to elevate the status of the humble “housewife”?
At least the Pork Vinadaloo is relatively clear – its clearly fiery (always is) and the heat clears up the sinuses too

Yes, it’s all a bit much! I’m heartened to know that you’re bringing some scepticism of these sexist attitudes to the marketing and PR world. All the better that you serve it up here with a wink and a recipe.

I love your recipe book and your blog, your recipes are fantastic for those like me that know nothing about Indian cooking but have an Indian to cook for! Thank you!

I can’t agree with you more on this! I keep getting ‘You look so young!’ when I am out with my daughter, and my reply to that usually is ‘I am young’ lol! It’s hard not to get affected by these stupid statements.
