Meet Anadi

I left the restaurant kitchen to teach you everything it taught me.

I grew up in New Delhi, moved to Ottawa for university, and spent years recreating the food I missed — which eventually took me behind the restaurant line for 4+ years. The kitchen gave me the technique and flavour philosophy I couldn't have learned anywhere else. Now I cook, teach, and share everything it taught me — across Indian food, Italian pasta, Japanese technique, and wherever curiosity takes me next.

A seasoned beef patty searing in a cast-iron skillet, its top edge deep brown and craggy with a freshly seared crustVideo

crust building

The Crust Is the Flavor: How I Sear Every Burger Patty, Thick or Smashed

Almost all of a burger's flavor lives in its crust — the deep, browned layer that only forms when a loose ball of beef meets ripping-hot cast iron and gets pressed flat. Here's how to build the best crust for the most flavor, thick or smashed.

A glass jar of dark soy-sesame chilli dressing — balanced with a pinch of sugar — on a slate surface with cucumbers, cilantro, and sesame seeds.

flavor balancing

The seasoning chefs reach for that isn't just salt — and it isn't for sweetness

A small amount of sugar doesn't make a sauce sweet — it rounds off the hard edges of acid and salt so everything tastes balanced instead of harsh. It's the difference between a dressing that bites and one that just tastes right.

pasta emulsification

Why restaurant pasta never separates (and yours probably does)

The starchy water at the bottom of your pasta pot is the most underused ingredient in Italian cooking. It is the reason restaurant pasta coats and home pasta separates — and saving a cup of it is the single step that closes that gap.

Cooked Air Fryer paneer tikka with a bowl of green mint chutney.

paneer cooking

The paneer problem nobody warns you about — and the line cook fix

Paneer behaves nothing like tofu. It does not absorb marinade the same way, and it will become rubbery if overcooked. One mental shift — confident heat, leave it alone — fixes 90% of paneer failures.

Bowl of Haleem to demonstrate braised meat technique

braising

The technique that makes cheap cuts taste better than expensive ones

Braising converts collagen — tough connective tissue — into gelatin through low, steady heat. The sauce thickens itself. Learn the three-step sequence (sear, deglaze, go low and slow) that restaurant kitchens never skip.

Bowl of paneer butter masala

masala base

How every Indian restaurant makes 20 different curries from one master base

The onion-tomato masala base is the foundation of almost every Indian curry. Learn the bhunao signal — the moment the oil separates at the edges — that tells you when the base is ready to build on.
