Just a fun loving humble person who loves to cook and share recipes with others. Me and cooking, never saw that coming as the last place I would like to be at my home was the kitchen, but now it is just the opposite. The first time I took some cooking tips from my mum was when I had to go school camping and I was in charge of cooking for my group, and guess what I won the first place for my group in the cooking competition for which I had prepared Pulao as one of the main dish..That really was the start. From then on before I moved to Australia in 2002, I noted down all the common Goan recipes on a small diary from my mum because I knew I was going to be on my own and will have to cook.So that was it, since then I developed an interest towards cooking and never looked back. So here I am today with my blog to share my recipes with all you people. Hope you like it and please do try out my recipes and leave me feedback thanks.
