At MEWA India 2026 in New Delhi, the Almond Board of Australia marked a significant moment for health-forward cooking in India with the launch of the Australian Almonds Recipe & Nutrition Book—a thoughtfully curated guide that bridges modern nutrition with the evolving rhythms of Indian kitchens.
More than a recipe collection, the book brings together science, sustainability, and everyday practicality, offering Indian-inspired dishes designed to make almonds an effortless part of daily meals. From breakfast staples to contemporary mains and smart snacking ideas, the focus is on showing how Australian almonds can seamlessly fit into real, everyday cooking.
Leading the launch, Tim Jackson, CEO of Australian Almonds, spoke about the journey of Australian almonds in India—highlighting their quality standards, sustainable farming practices, and their growing role in conscious food choices across the country.
Reinforcing this momentum, Sumit Saran, India Representative, shared how the brand continues to make Australian almonds easily accessible for Indian consumers, with strong availability across leading e-commerce platforms and major retail outlets nationwide.
The nutrition conversation was anchored by Dr. Madhu Sharma, who offered practical insights into the health benefits of almonds, underscoring their role in balanced diets, heart health, and sustained energy—making the case for almonds as more than just an ingredient, but a daily wellness ally.
Adding culinary theatre to the afternoon, the presence of Chef Manjit Singh Gill set the tone for a chef-driven celebration, while the highlight came through a live cooking demonstration by Chef Dhruv Oberoi, Executive Chef at Olive Bar & Kitchen, New Delhi. His dishes brought the book’s philosophy to life, showing how almonds can elevate both traditional and contemporary plates with texture, nutrition, and flavor.
With this launch, Australian Almonds positions the book as a source of inspiration for both home cooks and professional chefs—encouraging a smarter, tastier approach to everyday nutrition, one almond at a time.
