Namaste! I am a passionate home cook from India who loves exploring the beauty of traditional vegetarian recipes- especially those inspired by temple kitchens, festivals and everyday sattvik meals.Through my cooking, I try to blend taste with simplicity, usually with locally available ingredients and avoiding onion and garlic in many of my dishes.I m on a journey to rediscover forgotten recipes, offer them with love to the divine and share them with others through my kitchen tales.Welcome to my space. Lets cook with heart and soul.
