THE MONTHLY NEWSLETTER
The Empress Market Newsletter is a monthly dispatch on food and culture, cooked and written from Numra’s desi kitchen in South London.
You can subscribe to my Substack here to receive future stories and recipes directly in your mailbox. I’ll also be sharing detailed recipes via this blog on my website, including some chef’s tips, so make sure to bookmark this page in your browser for future reference.
In my kitchen, whether it’s in my home or at a venue where I’m catering, hospitality has always been about more than food, but an expression of who and where I wish to be in the world. I hope you’ll welcome this newsletter as an invitation to sit at my table.
