Petty Elliott: The Indonesian Table

This week, Gilly is with the Indonesian chef behind her last sell
out supper club, Petty Elliott. Her book, The Indonesian
Table is a seminal work on the food of this archipelagic state of
17000 islands. We might think we know the flavours of Bali, Java,
maybe even Sumatra, but Minangkabau? Manado? Banda Island?
Probably not.


Petty brought Indonesian food to a hungry public for the first
time 20 years ago as a food journalist and chef, and has been
cooking for some of the most influential people in the world
since. Gilly met her at the British Library to talk about her
book, why she chose this most hallowed of literary venues and
being a card carrying member of this very British institution.
