One of these demonstrations was delivered by my favourite local restaurant, The Purple Poppadom. Head Chef and owner Anand George took to the stage with competition winner Ben Vivian to teach the audience how to make one of his award winning dishes, Tiffin Seabass. I can share the recipe with you below. I have had this at the restaurant and it is outstanding so I am very excited to have the recipe to try out at home.
