Grandma's Roots
Overview
Grandma's Roots
Twelve-year-old Raj hasn't cooked since his grandmother died. Then one night, Amma appears at the tawa-a ghost in a turquoise sari, still scolding him about the salt. She teaches him dholl puri, farata, rougaille, each dish a lesson in patience, balance, and the secret masala that travelled across oceans. But as Raj builds a restaurant from an abandoned shed, the village laughs, the customers complain, and Amma begins to fade. With every burnt curry and every perfect farata, Raj must learn the hardest recipe of all: how to carry someone you love not in your kitchen, but in your bones. A tender, mouth-watering novel about grief, belonging, and the roots that grow when we dare to cook with an open heart.
