Im a dentist with a passion to cook good food for my loved ones. I love being inspired by others and I'm not afraid to experiment in the kitchen. I grew up watching my mum cook some delicious delicacies and I also travelled around the world enjoying different cuisines. However, my heart lies with Indian cuisine. Lets cook together :)
