This essay analyses Indian-Tamil food memoirist Shoba Narayan’s memoir,  Monsoon Diary  (2003), arguing that the Indian diasporic feminized food-memoir is a crucial site through which to interrogate the class aspirations of a “new” globalized Indian elite. Narayan’s text was one of the first Indian diasporic food memoirs to be published in the early years of the twenty-first century, and played a decisive role in popularizing the genre of the feminized Indian food memoir. Switching between her life-story and recipes of everyday South Indian home-cooked fare, Narayan established a new hybrid genre within the cultural field of Indian Anglophone life-writing.
