ANJULA DEVI BECOMES CONSULTANT INDIAN CHEF AT MANCHESTER UTD
Indian Female Chef Anjula Devi, best known for her extensive knowledge of spices, has become the first consultant chef on Indian cuisine at the world’s biggest football club, Manchester United.
Anjula, a respected food writer and author, will work alongside Executive Chef James Tagg to create delicious curries and appetisers on home match days, catering for over 6,000 football fans who enjoy hospitality and executive catering at Old Trafford.
“Cooking has always been my passion,” Anjula explains. “But to now share that passion on such a huge stage is an amazing opportunity. I have already learnt so much from the Man Utd catering team about cooking on such a large scale, but hope I’ve also shared some of my spice knowledge with the other chefs too.”
Having started cooking with her father at the age of eight, Anjula launched her own business in 2010, Anjula Devi Authentic Indian Food, providing Indian dinner parties and Indian cookery classes.
Now a Brand Ambassador for TRS Foods, the world’s largest Indian food company, Anjula has also launched her own brand, Route 207, inspired by the bus route she used to take to the spice market, as well as two recipe books Authentic Indian Food and Spice for Life.
Chef James Tagg added: “Anjula has a wealth of knowledge and a passion for producing quality, tasty, authentic Indian food that titivates the taste buds from start to finish. She is a great resource and asset for my brigade to be able to enhance their learning and development. An individual whose style and method of transferring knowledge and information is always positive and full of kitchen speak that the team understands. Inspirational, skilled and always looking to learn, a pleasure to work with.”
