Overview
From Guyanese-Canadian chef, media personality and author Devan Rajkumar, aka “Chef Dev,” comes Mad Flavor, the highly anticipated follow-up to his bestselling cookbook, Mad Love. Inspired by his culinary journeys to over a dozen countries, this dynamic collection features more than 100 soul-satisfying recipes that reflect the universal language of a shared meal.
These are recipes inspired by dishes Dev has savored here, there and everywhere: Mango Sticky Rice in Bangkok; Chicken Karahi in Lahore; Jerk Oxtail in Jamaica; and Spinach and Paneer Momos prepared for a pop-up in Kathmandu. Adapted for the home kitchen, these street eats, restaurant-style favourites, and comfort foods use everyday ingredients and straightforward instructions to deliver Chef Dev’s big, signature flavors.
Features:
- More than 100 globally inspired recipes, from Korean Fried Chicken to Guyanese Duck Curry to Basque Burnt Cheesecake

- Step-by-step guidance provided for foundational techniques, such as folding and pleating dumplings, helping to empower home cooks of every skill level
