Fish pickings done, up next was a bit of veggie shopping. Xerxes let us in on the fact that Russell Market has vendors who offers veggies required for specific cuisines. Think Asian vegetables for Chinese dishes or English’ vegetables to accompany your roast chicken. His go-to option is AS Traders for their fresh stock of zucchini, broccoli and American cucumber, which find their way into dishes like the Zucchini Parcel with Millet Salad and Tarkari Khichdi with Dahi Curry {a Parsi special} at Red Fork. Considering their menu which changes frequently, he is also hoping to add dishes using local heroes like bitter gourd, yam and white pumpkin.
