Hi, I'm Rajni

Hi there, I'm Rajni!! As you can probably already tell, I love to cook (almost as much as my family loves to eat). I'm a teacher by profession and blogging is a passion. I live in the costal city of Chennai, India.

Food has always been an integral part of my life since childhood, what can one expect with a foodie father and a mother who's a good cook . My father though a meager eater, was very particular about food combinations. My mom is an avid pickler and cooked the best Palakkad cuisine. Added to this they exposed me to a variety of cuisine at an early age.

We moved out of the small town and lived in various cities after. Here, we frequented many different restaurants with varying cusines . Trying new kinds of food made me want to recreate these at home as well. I started trying to recreate them at home. The fact that my daughter and husband are always ready to try the new dishes that I make, keeps me excited and motivated.

In this website, you'll find some vegetarian family recipes passed on to me by my mother and mother-in-law, as well as some new ones that I've tried to create. This will be a home to recipes ranging from south and north Indian foods, some healthy foods, some baking, and some continental foods, among many others.

I staunchly abide by one principle when it comes to this website- I won't share a recipe that I have not successfully cooked thrice.

I am extremely passionate about cooking, and at a personal level, it had shaped me into who I am today. Here is a peek into my recipes, hope you have fun creating them!!!
