Bold is all about big flavours, surprising ingredient combinations and incredible flavour twists to a collection of international classics, from family favourites to exciting and exotic dishes you may never have tried before, encouraging you to step out of your comfort zone and try something new. It's all part of Nisha’s philosophy of “Trust me, this works” – and you'll never cook the same way again.

Discover max-flavour takes on classic home-cooking:

• Small Plates – try out "Bengali Hash Browns", "Figgy Meatloaf" and "Spiced Venison & Parsnip Potstickers"

• Sweet Plates – tantalize your tastebuds with "Saffron & Orange Blossom Scones", "Plum & Tamarind Strudel" and "Peppery Pink Grapefruit Pavlovas"

Bold is named after Nisha Katona's signature punchy cooking style, brave use of spicing and ingredient combinations, and in honour of the first of her hugely popular Mowgli Street Food restaurants, set up on 2014 on Bold Street, Liverpool.
