Shef’s Fiery Kitchen

My full name is Shefali Somani, but everyone calls me Shef (just like you think it would sound). I was born in Tanzania, though both my parents are originally from Gujarat, India. Since my youth, I took a great interest in learning to cook from my mother and grew up in her kitchen. Over the years, as her student, I’ve learned how to make many East Indian dishes and now I would like to share that knowledge with you. Most of the dishes my sister Sharon and I prepare are Indian with an East African influence.  Like the languages and religions of India, East Indian cuisine is very regional and can vary from province to province and from family and family. These recipes are passed down to me through my family. At our shop at the market you will find a variety of Indian and Thai specialities both ready to eat and frozen so you can prepare it at home for your family.
