I've never been a big reality show lover (though all bets are off for "The Bachelor," of course). The only other exception I'll make is for food shows. I've been watching Gordon Ramsay curse at contestants on "Hell's Kitchen" since before I was old enough to know any four-letter words or how to turn on a microwave.
As the years have passed, I've made an attempt at replicating some of the drool-worthy dishes I've seen on TV, and now that cooking is the primary option during quarantine, I've been bingeing in every sense of the word. Coming from an Indian family, cooking for loved ones and gathering at the dinner table has always been a big deal, as is for most of my friends who are also children of immigrants.
But now, more than ever, everyone is gathering around food with their loved ones — whether on FaceTime or IRL — and when we're not eating, it's likely we're watching other people who are, admittedly, much better at putting together a professional, gorgeous meal on screen than we could ever be.
That said, nearly everyone has a quarantine buddy who's picked up cooking (or bingeing cooking shows) as their latest hobby. Whether that's you or them, these are the recipes from our favorite Netflix food shows that already have us drooling over our screens.
