We know what it's like - you clock in after a long week at work and all you want to do is pick up the phone, dial your local curry-chinese-pizza-thai-turkish takeaway and indulge in some naughty nibbles. RESIST! You can cook incredible dishes for a fraction of the price, triple the flavour and all in the time you're left waiting for the doorbell to ding.

The lovely Maunika Gowardhan, an Indian chef and food writer, is over in the Drinks Tube corner to make that wonderfully creamy Indian drink - the lassi. The perfect accompaniment to a spicy curry, Maunika's mango and saffron lassi uses fresh mango, tinned mango pulp, crushed cardamom seeds, yoghurt, milk and a dash of saffron-infused water. Garnish with some crushed pistachio and a colourful straw!
