Chef and author Maneet Chauhan digs into two of India’s most beloved staples in the next episode of Maneet’s Eats, airing Saturday, May 24 at 12:00 PM on Food Network.
Titled “Chai and Murukku,” the episode is built around comfort and crunch, with Chauhan walking viewers through how to make the classic spiced milk tea from scratch—complete with her own signature masala blend—alongside murukku, the savory, deep-fried snack known for its addictive texture.
She also carves out time to spotlight a handful of go-to Indian snacks that don’t require prep, pointing viewers toward easy grab-and-go options available at specialty markets.
The series, produced by Food Network, is still early in its run but already carving out space as a culturally specific, personality-driven addition to the weekend food TV lineup. Chauhan’s blend of warmth, technical authority, and regional focus marks a distinct lane in the network’s daytime programming.
