Hello and Welcome to my Virtual Kitchen!! I love to cook,take pics of what I make and write about it.
I was born and raised amidst so much love family in Mysore,India.My experiments in kitchen began when I was ten.With my great grand mother by my side I made an Indian dessert called Kesaribath [sooji ka halwa] for the first time to surprise my family. Though, it was not bang on, everyone enjoyed it and they said I did a fantastic job!! This,encouraged me to get creative and my experiments in the kitchen were a hit with my little cousins.
Over the years my love for food has grown leaps and bounds.I'm a food enthusiast with an appetite for almost anything. I try to cook things that are practical, interesting and delicious.I like to pair different things and see how they taste together. 99% of the times they have been a huge hit with my family and friends.My hubby dear has always encouraged me to explore and experience different cuisines and I can't think him enough for being my one man tech team to get this blog going.Thanks Shekhar!!
