Ask any chef about his or her favorite meal and chances are, the answer will most often be ‘maa ke haath ka khana’. There’s something extremely special about a mother’s touch that even the simplest of dishes seem more memorably flavorful than the fanciest of cuisines!
Their food is like a great chef’s food but without the diploma. And when it comes to festivals, the sweetness of a mother’s love is even more prominent and intricately linked to one’s experience of the festival. Celebrating the marvels of festive cuisine with mother’s touch, TLC, India’s go to lifestyle channel is launching an unconventional food-based short format series titled ‘Home Made Love’ from September 9.
This first of its kind multi-part cooking based series ‘Home Made Love’ launching on TLC, and TLC HD World is powered by leading brands such as TTK Prestige, Tata Sampann Spices and Tupperware. In this special short format series, TLC will take viewers on a delicious journey across the country with the Chef Ranveer Brar. Having missed out on many festive meals with his family due to his work, Ranveer is now back and is on a quest to find the best festive dishes. He will be teaming with up his mother and some other mothers too from across various regional and cultural backgrounds to make some lip-smacking dishes for various festivals such as Ganesh Chaturthi, Onam, Navratri, Durga Puja, Diwali and so on.
“I have always believed in the power of mothers to make us happy and joyous through our food at any point in time. To celebrate Indian cuisine is incomplete without celebrating the home-cooked food. There are three pillars that our food stands on – home-cooked food, royal food and street food – and all of them are equally important. While enough has been spoken about street food and royal food, more and more needs to be spoken about homemade food and the home makers who have carried that tradition forward. I’m looking forward to Home Made Love to do that, to spread the message of joyous home cooked food through TLC, said, Chef Ranveer Brar. “As far as TLC goes, this is the beginning to many more things that TLC and I will be doing together in the food, travel and lifestyle space.”
“TTK Prestige has powered the love of relationships in a family for many decades. Every product that we innovate and offer is inspired by ‘the love of cooking’ in fact we work and believe in a thought ‘Nurturing love, togetherness and food’. The concept of mother’s inspiring festive cooking is unique and a great fit for our brands,” said, Dinesh Garg, Executive Vice president – Sales & Marketing, TTK Prestige.
Sagar Boke, Business Head – Spices and Marketing, Consumer Products Business, Tata Chemicals, states that the association with TLC’s ‘Home Made Love’ is a perfect fit for Tata Sampann as the brand nestles its belief in the power of wholesome Indian food, “Tata Sampann’s core philosopy is inspired from the Indian Food wisdom. We believe that “ghar ka khana” cooked with good quality ingredients is most suitable for Indians. Our purpose is turn everyday Indian food into powerhouses of nutrition. That’s why everything that emerges from the Tata Sampann table is always pure, most authentically sourced – wanting to bring moments of delight and a unique nutritional benefit in every meal that you cook for your family.”
