If you know me, you know I love to cook not just for me, but others too! It fuels my soul to have those close to me enjoy a tasty meal I created!🥰 Tonight I made " Pomegranate Pistachios Rabri Kunafa" Rolls ! So delicious 😋 🤤

I #choosetocook because cooking give me a chance to be creative and indulge in some ‘play’ time in food presentation. I adore losing myself in the rituals of chopping, stirring and tasting.

The more I learn about nutrition the more I’ve come to realize that the most important factor for healthy eating is to avoid processed food and focus on using real ingredients.

Plus it gives me an opportunity to nurture my family and friends. To express my love and take care of them.
And... !!!
Hearing the words ‘this is amazing’ ,'delicious' , 'you have done a fantastic job' 'perfectly made' was a huge motivator for me to keep spending time in the kitchen when I was learning to cook.

And still is.....
