Eat Raja founder Anand Raja to host ‘Kitchen Secrets’ event on zero-waste cooking
Bengaluru: Anand Raja, the man behind the famous zero-waste juice shop Eat Raja in Malleswaram, is a man with a mission.
In his juice shop you are served juice in the shells and rinds of the fruits, instead of plastic cups. Zero waste and sustainability is his mantra. On May 9, he will team up with volunteer group Beautiful Bharat for an event called Kitchen Secrets, where participants can learn how to use kitchen scraps and leftovers, and also sample the dishes.
The event will happen at Panchavati in Malleswaram, a bungalow and grounds that were once the home of Nobel Prize winning physicist CV Raman. Kitchen Secrets will feature live demos on turning peels, stems, and leftover rice into fresh dishes, plus tips on composting and low-waste storage. Attendees can taste recipes made from what usually ends up in the bin.
“Waste is just a resource in the wrong place,” Anand Raja said. “If we rethink how we see scraps, our kitchens get lighter and our food gets more creative.” The session runs from 10:30 am to 1 pm on May 9. Entry is free, but registration is required via Beautiful Bharat’s social media pages. Limited seats available.
