My chef cap on

Our family is a close-knit of relatives and when we get together its always a rocking feast, for sure one dinner will be from the boys group. Some how I have always been part of this group, I think I fit into this since on usual days I am away from kitchen as the boys. My part is to chop vegetables and clean dishes never ever tried cooking as there were many enthusiastic to display their skills. So my brother is better cook than me. But I had to start cooking once I got married. With all experiments on my husband, believe I have had worse dish made by my hand and would like to mention some dishes cooked were mouth watering too.

In present fast moving life with busy schedule I have seen people eating just as mere formality. According to me whenever we eat one as to enjoy it rather than just gulping something which is not making any difference. People eat frozen food, some cook for a week, whatever their circumstance might be which makes them unable to cook they must not forget that its an important and essential component to remain healthy they should involve all family to help them in kitchen and make the whole thing more interesting and joyful. Nothing is more refreshing than to be with loved ones and spend time with them. People who don't like cooking, I myself was in that category few years back what got me out of it is desire to eat tasty healthy food and cook as my mother, food blogs and cooking videos showed me the way as well my mother's receipes. Just look around in Internet there are loads of easy to cook videos to start off with then you can gradually move on exploring more dishes. Hats off to those people who share their kitchen with world and also convert their hobby to lucrative buisness. Its all about encouraging others to cook.

After almost two years of independent cooking I have managed to cook decent meal for guest we have occasionally at home. In the process of learning to cook I realised it is an Art. The way to use the ingredients and passion with you cook adds different taste to the dish. I must say my mother is best cook I have known, I have tried to match her but still in vain. For instance I have same recipe as her for a dish but still doesn't come out as she cooks. When I mentioned passion I meant one has to feel happy about cooking either than thinking of it as a lame job. Good breakfast at the start of day gives you more energy and zeal to look forward, tasty lunch remind always of the love with which it was done and wholesome dinner together can make day perfect or turn a day round if it was not perfect.
So after all my experiments I have wholesome Indian meal to present.
Happy cooking and enjoy eating!
