Your specialty is Indian food with a modern flair, and every dish you make – from saffron rice to papaya-glazed chicken – is a testament to what our national cuisine is all about. What excites you most about Indian cooking.
Shipra Khanna
Indian cuisine is by far the best cuisines in the world When it comes to the ingredients used in our daily Indian cooking, each having medicinal properties and health benefits! Ayurveda has a big influence on our Indian cuisine; hence Indian Cuisine is healthy & delicious as well! The ingredients, spices, flavours, and preparation methods everything included so I use my roots of Indian cooking with international cuisine and make menus for my Pop Ups across the globe and got the honour of receiving ‘Mahatma Gandhi Leadership Award ‘ at the British Parliament In LONDON, in 2019 for propagating Indian cuisine across the globe!

There is an increasing bent towards international cuisine in recent times especially among the youth. How do you go about coping with the increasing pressure of high demand for pizza, pasta, etc.
Shipra Khanna
Well, the youth today is well versed with new cuisines and flavours thanks to digitization which has made the world a smaller place! The best and the worst part of being in a food related profession, is that it is ever evolving, of course to make it better and have your signature in the food that you sevre ! In my menus I do keep innovative and signature recipes which are incredibly challenging yet fun because it helps you push the boundaries and test your skills as well! When you make your passion your profession, your work doesn’t seem like work anymore! The pandemic has taught us a lot and now I am stressing on healthy food with my Calendar 2021 themed “Health Unlimited”
Namita Nayyar
You are considered the most glamourous Indian chef. Share your diet routine. Foods & diet you go by the day to stay nourished. Supplements you take.
Shipra Khanna
I am a foodie and I love to eat, also because my profession calls for it (that’s the excuse I always give)! Having said that I balance it with exercise. A Balanced diet with naturally found fresh and seasonal ingredients is my mantra for good health!
Love creating new healthy recipes, you can catch them on YouTube channel Shipra’s kitchen.
