Ashia Ismail-Singer: Blending Cultures and Comfort Through Food

At the Sharjah International Book Fair 2025, New Zealand-based author Ashia Ismail-Singer brings her signature “global kitchen” to life — where flavours from Africa, India, and Europe meet in a heartfelt celebration of her Memon heritage. In this episode, she talks about her latest cookbook Food for Sharing, and how food becomes a story of migration, belonging, and memory. From her crowd-favourite Parmesan-crumbed paneer with hot honey to reflections on cultural identity and comfort, Ashia shares how simple dishes can transcend borders and connect people through shared experience.
