About

Hello and welcome to my blog.

I am Anitha and I live in Chennai, India with my wonderful husband and our adorable Son.

I am a Chartered Accountant in a full-time job.

My interest in cooking developed over a span of time I would say.

I am a big fan of Mrs.Tarla Dalal’s cookbooks, the wonderful recipes and photos in her books inspired me to try her recipes and buy more books. I have a collection of about 100 cook books !!!

My roots are from Mangalore and I started this blog in an attempt to collect, document and share the traditional Udupi recipes which are the most cherished memories of my childhood. Now that I have made a beginning, I am also collecting and documenting traditional Tamil Iyengar recipes from my Mother-in-law. I am enjoying this new found passion of photography, food styling and blogging thoroughly.

Most of the recipes in this blog are from Tarla Dalal’s books, Mom, Mother-in-law and various sources including family and friends.

So go ahead, try these recipes and feel free to post your comments, ideas and suggestions at the end of each post.
