  • Can Indian Food Look to Aboriginal Country?

    Can Indian Food Look to Aboriginal Country?
    2026/09/24
    A naan lands on the table, fragrant with saltbush and lemon myrtle. It’s unmistakably Indian, but its flavours draw from Aboriginal food traditions that have existed for thousands of years. Sydney's Indian restaurant Lavendra brings this rare fusion in its new seasonal menu, Cooking with Country. SBS Spice speaks with owner Inderpreet Singh and Wiradjuri man Nathan "mudyi" Sentance, whose poetry closes the dining experience. Our returning question is: Can Indian food start looking to Country more?

    Swati Sachdeva on being bisexual, funny and Indian in Australia
    2026/09/12
    Swati Sachdeva is one of the few women in Indian comedy openly talking about being bisexual, but she has no interest in letting that define her work. In Australia for her first tour, Swati speaks with Dilpreet Taggar about being a woman in Indian stand-up, being boxed in after going viral, and the unexpected sense of kinship she finds among South Asians overseas. And before she leaves, we put her Australian slang to the test. Watch the full interview on SBS Spice on YouTube.

  • Shamik Chakrabarti on Australian Culture, Astrology and Comedy

    Shamik Chakrabarti on Australian Culture, Astrology and Comedy
    2026/08/27
    Shamik Chakrabarti has quietly become one of India's most distinctive English-language comedians, and while on his Australian tour, he dropped into SBS Spice. Unfortunately for him, Dilpreet Taggar had bigger priorities than comedy. Like astrology, of course. Somehow they do find time to discuss comedy writing, Aussie slang, Indian parents, whale watching, and omelettes. Not necessarily in that order. You can also watch this interview on YouTube.
