The Yellow Chilli, Meerut 5.1

“Chilli - it’s either blood red or a vivid green.
Almost always loaded with pungency. Cut and
it will sting. Taste and it will bite. But yellow
chilli? I found it simply inconceivable. Till one
fine day, a few years ago, I discovered it on the
streets of my mother’s hometown, Meerut.
I have been travelling the length and the
breadth of India in search of the unique tastes
and flavours of the various regions, for
inspiration for many of my recipes.
We all know Meerut is the melting pot of
unique chaats. The special chilli mix that the
chaatwallas used here adds that extra zing and
brings about a confluence of flavours, aroma
and colour. It took just one bite of that for ‘The
Yellow Chilli’to come into being.
Come, experience the richness of my
inspirations and I’m sure you will remember it
for a long time.”
