A Little Bit About Me
Welcome to my online kitchen!
Cooking has always been my passion, but as my life got busier, I realized how difficult it can be to stay motivated to get in the kitchen. I started law school in peak-pandemic 2020, and found myself trying to adapt to a new way of life.
My passion for cooking has led me to come up with tips, tricks and delicious recipes that are "busy-people" friendly, and my goal is to share those tricks and recipes with you!
One thing I have realized is that good, easy meals do not need to take hours on end to prepare. I bring to you, recipes that can be prepared and made in under an hour - with lots of shortcuts and tips along the way, to make your weeknights as easy as possible.
I love to recreate classic favourites - especially restaurant copycats, and new cuisines alike. I also have an insane obsession with my air fryer, and will quite literally try to develop any recipe to work in it too! Most importantly, I like to make home cooking easy and accessible to everyone. It doesn't have to be hard, but it definitely has to be delicious!
Where it All Started
I grew up in an Indian-Punjabi household. I was fortunate enough to grow up with my grandparents, which is where my passion for cooking really stemmed from.
My grandparents owned one of the first Indian restaurants in Toronto with amazing success, but unfortunately closed down many years ago due to my grandfather's health. Despite the restaurant closing down, cooking and food were so central to my life growing up.
My grandfather was an explorer in the kitchen. Every day he would experiment with different cuisines and dishes, which is where my love for trying different foods likely comes from. He always encouraged me to get in the kitchen and take an interest in cooking - and here we are today!
When I was younger, truthfully, I didn't always love Indian food. As I have grown older, though, I appreciate my cultural foods so much more. This website is a representation of how I like to eat - a mix of different cuisines, that are quick, easy and accessible.
