The Jackfruit Chronicles

From jackfruit kofta curry to sour tomato broth, fish with clementine peels to vermicelli pudding, Ahsan’s second book mines the memories triggered by food to create an appetising personal memoir of Bengali cuisine and culture. Recipes are interwoven with the story of Ahsan’s grandfather Habib’s arrival in Manchester in the 1950s and the broader narrative of the resilience of the Bangladeshi diaspora.
