Since the moment she first appeared on our TV screens over 35 years ago Madhur made curry go mainstream. She has influenced has influenced home cooks and chefs throughout the western world. Yet lots of her food is deliciously simple, as Ghillie and Summaya find out when Madhur makes them Bazaari Aloo, a version of potatoes with cumin and asafetida
Throughout the programme they explore how food gives you a sense of identity, the role it plays in defining community and their mutual love of spice.
