Katie sits down with vegan Indian chef, Priyanka Naik, for a fun and flavorful conversation about her journey in food, growing up in New York City, and the cultural influences that shape her cooking today. The two first met when Priyanka competed on Food Network’s Cooks vs. Cons—with Katie as a judge—and won with her unforgettable Nacho Cheese Pav Bhaji. Priyanka shares stories about her parents immigrating from Mumbai to New York, what it was like growing up on Staten Island, and how those experiences inspired her love of cooking. She also dishes on her favorite Indian markets, go-to NYC restaurants, and approachable recipes for anyone looking to explore the cuisine, plus the inspiration behind her cookbook The Modern Tiffin, inspired by the lunches her mom packed growing up. It’s a vibrant, delicious episode full of culture, nostalgia, and plenty of food inspiration.
