Chef Priyanka readers! Some of you may have noticed that I have been working on a few different things lately, mainly developing sponsored content and most recently freelancing for the Staten Island Advance! I’ll be doing a series of ‘Indian Twists on Italian Classics!’ As you all know, I’m born and bred in Staten Island, so Italian food is second nature to me. I’m happy to introduce my heritage and flavors into some of these classics! If you haven’t seen it yet, check out my latest contributions – full recipes on silive.com! More to come so keep on the lookout!!
