Civilised Sundays at Jikoni

Sathnam Sanghera whose memoir The Boy With The Topknot: A Memoir of Love, Secrets and Lies in Wolverhampton was recently turned into a BBC drama will be talking about his life and career and how his latest project, a Channel 4 documentary on the Amritsar Massacre of 1919, The Massacre That Shook The Empire has affected the way he sees Britain. He will be interviewed by renowned author and historian Amandeep Madra. To complement the conversation, Jikoni’s Chef Patron Ravinder Bhogal has created a menu reflecting both their recent trips to Amritsar. Dishes will include Langar Dhal Croquetas with Punjabi Carrot Achaar, Paneer Gnudi, Saag and Salted Dried Paneer, Amritsari Fritto Misto as well as a traditional Punjabi Thali featuring a variety of pulses and vegetables normally found off restaurant menus and exclusively in Punjabi home kitchens. For something sweet, a rich dessert of Carrot, Cardamom and Vanilla Kheer Creme Brûlée. Booking essential via link.
