Welcome to my recipe book

As a kid I had no interest in cooking at all...

                   

My mom was a home maker so I had all the comfort of not having any responsibility in my life. Didn't have to do anything at all. The only thing that I learned later in life was to make a fried egg. When i was in the 10th grade, I asked her to teach me how to cook. Then she told me that she will teach me when the time was right. In spite of that she tried teaching me how to make dal (lentil) curry. Once I ended up burning the masalas and the next time i didn't cook the masala at all. In fact my little experiment with cooking was a fiasco. 

After that I didn't cook anything for a very long time. I finished my schooling and went on to college where I was staying in a hostel. So again no cooking or any interaction with the kitchen. The little experience I had over there was making instant noodles and scrambled eggs.

Then many years later I had to browse through many food blogs when my fiance started cooking at his place and I had to guide him through many recipes. Even then I really didn't know anything about cooking, not even how to make a simple tea. 

Finally I got married :). the worst part.... I didn't even know how to wash rice!!!! Thankfully for me, my husband had a little experience in cooking. So he started teaching me how to cook. Little by little I started learning how to cook. I am still learning...

Over the past 2 years I have a collected recipes from my mom, mom-in-law, aunts and friends. Food blogs and YouTube food channels have been a great help. So I thought that I will save all the recipes that I like in one single place and in that way start trying out a lot of my bookmarked recipes. I am new to blogging and writing too. I read as much as I can, but writing has never been my thing. So pardon me if I make any mistakes.

Love,

Dona.
