FRIDGE FREESTYLN’ EP.20 @Bilal Bhatti THE DISH: Miss Vickie’s French Toast Spiced Coconut Custard Jalapeno Ginger Grape Chutney PRIMARY INSPO -Bilal is a big Miss Vickie’s chip fan & specifically the Jalapeno flavor. I wanted to make sure I used that as a key ingredient & inspiration for the dish -Bilal is Pakistani & has always championed sharing his culture through his videos including involving his mom (who is so lovely & she couldn’t stop smiling as she told me how proud she was of him) so I wanted to make a dish that involved some spices of Pakistani cuisine SECONDARY INSPO -Pakistani cuisine is robust & aromatic. They know how to make strong flavors shine yet balance each other. I wanted to play with big flavors like jalapeno, ginger, cinnamon & maple syrup in a cohesive fun sweet & savoury dish but taste & look wise (making the french toast look like a hash brown for example) -Bilal practices juijitsu so I wanted to make a dish that would be a great post workout meal as it has...
