Enter our worldwide giveaway to win one of two copies of Ayla: A Feast of Nepali Dishes from Terai, Hills and Himalayas by Santosh Shah.

Ayla: A Feast of Nepali Dishes from Terai, Hills and Himalayas by Santosh Shah explores and experiments with the spices and flavors of Nepal with a range of recipes, perfect for both the beginner and experienced home cook.
Santosh Shah is an experienced chef, who has worked in high-brow restaurants for years, including Cinnamon Kitchen and Michelin-starred Benares. He competed on the UK’s most prestigious cookery competition, Masterchef: The Professionals, coming in second place.
Santosh Shah was born and raised in a small village in Nepal called Karjanha, Siraha. Santosh’s inspirations and amazing dishes come from the ingredients from his childhood such as terrine made from colocasia leaf, a spinach like leaf with a deep earthy flavour that he use to pick from his mother's garden.
In his debut cookbook, Santosh shares 60 simple but flavorsome recipes alongside stories from his personal experience and the history of certain foods. These dishes are approachable for home kitchens and provides us a look into the cuisine of Nepal.
Our

- Steamed chicken momos with ginger & chilli with a tomato sesame chutney (Kukhura ko momo)
- Sherpa noodle soup (Thukpa)
