I don’t know, how other women are able to do it! But, I just couldn’t domesticate AK. Not even a bit, to the level of pet puppy. He is completely unruly. Maybe its not him…me to blame! This blog has created an illusion, as though I am some sort of culinary goddess, born to serve. […]

I have tried numerous ways to entice people to take up the presidential position in my kitchen. However, the chair is still vacant! First, I asked for little help, then EMPHASIZED it little more (I need damn help, you idiots). But, nothing worked. Expected volunteers, gave rewards, and freebies. Showed cue cards, cheat-sheets, app alerts…none […]

This blog has become a good friend that you always take for granted and postpone to call!! Because, you know…it would consume at least an hour to catch up on!

Do food rituals make the food taste better? I come from a family that is big on traditions and rituals, even when they don’t make any sense (like the exact count of coconuts on a prayer plate)! But…cooking, sharing and enjoying the food just wouldn’t be the same without all these formalities. My Mommy did […]

We Indians have a way of spicing up every dish we could lay our hands on. When we forget to put the magic spell on a particular dish, the rest of the world goes about and does it for us. ♥ Ever heard of Masala Maggi Noodles? It would appear KFC is synonymous with fried […]

If there is one thing, that I think fondly about India is…its about food! That’s because my gray cells are all wired and coded that way!
