Hi! I’m Kalyani.
A big-time cooking enthusiast who’d rather spend all day in the kitchen cooking up daily nutritious meals, and indulgent yummy treats for my family and friends, than eating it myself.
My love-affair with cooking began at age 4 or 5, when I’d prop myself up on the kitchen platform to look at the cooking process, and taking over the kitchen soon after.
My passion lies in making everything from scratch; snacks, ghee, or elaborate meals.
The motive behind introducing this website is to provide a one stop solution for all recipes that every home-cook needs, without the lengthy posts needing long minutes of scrolling before getting to the recipe. Because, as we all know about being pressed for time while in the kitchen!
My biggest motivators and taste-testers are my husband and 4-year old son, who make it all the more enjoyable for me by equally relishing a simple dal rice or the exquisite biryani.
This is for you, Sohil and Tej!
I run a baking venture Lavender Crumb where I passionately whip up gourmet cheesecakes for the wonderful people in my city, for 10 years.
Join me in this journey where I’ll be sharing my culinary expeditions, whether simple or elaborate.
Happy cooking!
