Indian Food Events

The last few months have drawn a lot of attention to attacks on Indians in Australia whicjh appear to be racially driven. Many students have been badly hurt and a few have even died. Mia Northrop, a resident of Melbourne has initiated an idea to stop the spreading of the violence through the promotion of great Indian food. Her idea is to get the people of Melbourne to dine at local Indian restaurants to show their solidarity to the local Indian community. The event is being scheduled for Wednesday February 24, 2010.
|
Below is her idea. Vindaloo Against Violence gives ordinary Melburnians a peaceful, easy way to:
- express their anger and disappointment that racially motivated violence is occurring in their city
- embrace and show solidarity with the local Indian community
- mount a show of force against the perpetrators of violence.
She initiated this event because she wanted her voice to be heard on this issue but didn’t know how. Let’s signal to the Indian media and other international observers that everyday Australians do not accept racially motivated violence and racism. Let’s also shift the local media, government and law enforcement focus from preventative measures Indians should take to protect themselves to:
- identifying the root causes and typical perpetrators of racially motivated violence
- finding ways to diffuse the criminal behaviour.
The event is not supporting any particular business interests and this initiative receives no government, commercial, organisation, union, community, religious or political party funding.
The idea is simply for everyday people to come together to support their immigrant communities in a very Melbourne way: through great food. For more details, visit the Vindaloo against Violence website. Indian Restaurants in Victoria.

| Sanjeev Kapoor's Khana Khazana Sanjeev Kapoor is one of India's most popular chefs and author. This book is the first in the series called "Khana Khazana: Celebration
of Indian Cookery" which has been planned in order to familiarize food
lovers with long forgotten regional cuisines of India. These recipes
will open the doors to the unexplored range of recipes that had been
relegated to the archives.
A lot of painstaking research has gone into collecting these recipes.
Each state and region included in this book has its own cuisine and
local flavour. In this book the author introduces a variety of dishes that
have been perfected by our ancestors. At the same time care has been
taken to ensure that the ingredients used are easily available and if
not, a substitute has been suggested. Chettinad Fried Chicken, Kombdi
Wada, Chingri Malai Curry, Rayalseema Pesarettu, Kolhapuri Pandhra
Rassa, Kesari Rajbhog, Khajoori Shahi Tukra are just a glimpse of the
fabulous tongue tickling recipes you will find between the two covers
of this book. They will not only bring in India's diversity into your
home kitchens but also help you to satiate the best of gourmet palates. More Sanjeev Kapoor's Cookbooks
