Though I have learnt the ways and tricks of cooking through the Home Science course attended before marriage, it became a passion and excitement for me much later. I regularly watch the cookery shows from various channels, experiment and master them in my kitchen (some times add my own variants) along with our traditional recipes. My family and friends really encourages and appreciates my dishes. I like to cook variety dishes for my family.
