Basil Spice Sunday special: five-course family meal

Cooked like Nana cooked it

Our Nana was the one everybody called when there was a wedding or an engagement to feed. The whole family pitched in, her tandoori chicken came out first, and her desserts were so loved that the neighbours came round to try them.

We grew up in Bangladesh and Britain, in kitchens full of grandparents, mums and aunties, and no two of them cooked the onions for the same length of time. That’s the cooking we bring to Basildon, with fresh ingredients from suppliers we trust and naan made fresh with every meal.
