Returning: Asia Unplated with Diana Chan

Season 2 of Asia Unplated with MasterChef winner Diana Chan begins on SBS Food in late January.

Diana Chan said: “I could not be more excited to be dishing up a second serving of Asia Unplated on SBS Food. Last season opened my eyes and tastebuds to what Asian cuisine can offer and I’m thrilled to be back to taste and learn more. I continue to be surprised and delighted by the rich culinary offering of Asia and I hope the SBS audience will be too.”

SBS Commissioning Editor for Food, Josh Martin, said: “I’m sure our viewers will be just as pleased as we are to get another taste of Asia Unplated. Asian cuisine is a staple of the modern Australian palate, and it continues to evolve as our diverse society does. This series will reveal the incredible flavours, history and layers that make up the breadth of this amazing food culture and show how accessible it is for all Australian home cooks!”

Asia Unplated with Diana Chan is a Chef’s Ink production for SBS.

The series follows Diana as she explores the fresh, aromatic flavours of Asia. Across 10 episodes, she cooks up simple but authentic, home-style Asian dishes. From the sweet, sour and salty flavours of Cambodia to the fragrant spices of Sri Lanka to Diana’s personal favourite, Malaysian street food, the series is chock-full of new and exciting recipes that are guaranteed to surprise.

Diana also invites friends and special guests into the kitchen to cook their favourite recipes and chat about the unique cooking styles and rich food histories of their favourite Asian cuisines. This season includes guests like chef Jerry Mai, Jacob Leung, chef Ross Magnaye and Masterchef alumni Khanh Ong, Sarah Todd and Karlie Verkerk among others.
