Junoon’s Head Chef, Aarthi Sampath Shares A Mother’s Recipe With JWB

Single? Nope, I am committed to food. It sounds like chef Aarthi Sampath is too. Remember Junoon’s head chef? Yep, the one who works in Vikas Khanna’s team and was also the winner of the cooking show ‘Chopped’. Chef Aarthi was also a part of the team that cooked for Prime Minister Modi during his visit to the States.

“In the entree round for ‘Chopped,’ I did the dish which was dedicated to my mother. I incorporated the way she fries fish, and I made bread upma,” she said in her interview with JWB.

Chef Aarthi is very close to her mother and loves using her recipes.

She shared a recipe from her mother’s culinary book with us, and we cannot keep it to ourselves any longer. This recipe is called ‘Amma’s infamous Pepper Goat Chops.’

You know, there are times like these when I regret being a vegetarian. But, I will find an alternative. There’s always paneer or soya chunks. *evilly rubs palms together*

Amma’s infamous Pepper Goat Chops:

5 pc. red onions sliced

1 pc. cinnamon

1 tbsp fennel powder

1 tbsp black pepper powder

1 tbsp tamarind pulp

1 tsp ginger chopped

1 tsp garlic chopped

2 pcs. ripe tomatoes chopped

1-5 kg goat chops cleaned

10 pcs. curry leaves

salt to taste

3 tbsp oil

  1. Heat oil, saute onions till golden, add the cinnamon. Add ginger, garlic, saute till golden and add the rest of the spices. Throw in tomatoes and the goat together. Season well.
  2. Allow to cook on the lowest heat for 40 minutes to an hour.

Try it out and let us know how it tasted!
