Gujarati Cuisine

In this episode we head to Leicester to meet Michael Scott, known as 'Scottie' to his friends. Scottie is captain of one of Leicester's oldest rugby clubs - Stoneygate. Every month they have a team curry night at the club but usually rely on takeaways, so Anjum convinces Scottie to make his own meal for the players. She takes him on a gastronomic journey to find out more about the cuisine that is enjoyed by Leicester's 20,000 strong Gujarati community. Having tasted some local delicacies, she teaches him how to make a fabulous Gujarati classic - Undihyo, a one-pot vegetarian dish. Then its off to meet Daxa, a Gujarati housewife, who reveals how to make delicious onion bhajis, and the secrets of a Gujarati thali. For Scottie's main course it's a hearty lamb curry with fenugreek dumplings, and chips with cashew nuts. Finally, can Scottie cook up a feast for his 15 curry-loving team mates?
