Event Description
Malvern’s own Suki Pantal serves up a feast with her new cookbook
Malvern food lovers, get ready for something truly delicious. Local resident Suki Pantal, who has called Malvern home for the past ten years, is about to release her brand-new cookbook, No Worries, Just Chicken Curries, published by Nourish Books on 11 November 2025.
To celebrate the launch, Suki will be signing copies of her cookbook at the Malvern Book Cooperative, St Ann’s Road, Great Malvern, at 3.30pm on Saturday 15 November 2025. Expect tastings of her famous chicken dishes, wine pairings, and plenty of behind-the-scenes stories from the book.
If you enjoy Suki’s monthly column in the Malvern Gazette or have caught her lively cooking demos at food festivals at the Three Counties Showground, Great Malvern Food Festival or around the UK, you already know her passion for authentic Indian flavours and her knack for making them wonderfully approachable. Many will also remember Suki’s appearance on Channel 4’s Great Cookbook Challenge with Jamie Oliver in 2022, where her Old Delhi Butter Chicken wowed the judges and first sparked the idea for this very book.
Now, in her second book, Suki turns the spotlight on India’s most beloved meat – chicken – bringing together 70 mouth-watering chicken recipes and 30 vegetable sides from every corner of India.
From lush Malabari Chicken Curry from Kerala to fiery Mangalorean Ghee Roast and vibrant Kathi rolls of Kolkata, Suki’s recipes celebrate the depth and variety of Indian home cooking while keeping the techniques simple and achievable in a British kitchen. Each recipe comes with the warmth of family stories and the wisdom of generations of Punjabi cooks, a reminder that the best food is always tied to love, memory and tradition.
No Worries, Just Chicken Curries is already creating a buzz – trending on Amazon UK’s Hot New Releases in the Indian Cookbook category!
The book will be available to buy in Malvern from Malvern Book Cooperative and Rossiter Books.
Whether you are a seasoned curry cook or a complete beginner, No Worries, Just Chicken Curries is a delicious invitation to bring the real taste of India into your Malvern kitchen. Come along, meet Suki, and discover why this local author is making chicken the talk of the town.
