Keer prepares a biryani dish

Watching culinary content in India is an interesting exercise, for it brings to light the evolution of the way cooking shows have been presented over the years. What’s more interesting is that they all continue to coexist and thrive. There are the regional channels where recipes are cooked by a chef, while the host looks on, often chiming in with some redundant queries from time to time. Then there is the more modern style, where the chef owns his show and runs it solo. And then there is content designed for social media that needs no chef — or at least, a face.
