'Am I too English, or too Indian?'

Food writer Mehak Kansal tells us about her new cookbook Bindas

- 

Mehak Kansal cannot believe she has just gone and poured her “whole life into a book”. It sounds rather daunting, filling the pages of a cookbook with your entire world, but Kansal doesn't seem the hesitant sort. At least, not these days.

The self-taught chef, food writer and founder of Bindas Eatery in West London, grew up in Wiltshire, where she spent her time riding horses and quad bikes and attending boarding school.
