I am Pooja. I live in Bangalore along with my husband and son. When I was little I used to enjoy watching my mother rustle up mouthwatering dishes with infinite care and ease. She is an amazing cook. I loved helping her in the kitchen as a child. I still remember the very first dish I prepared - a simple omelet. I felt very proud of my accomplishment when my mother told me it was good. It was then that I knew I wanted to make food that will be appreciated and savored. I have been cooking independently and managing a kitchen for more than 6 years. My husband always encourages me and spurs me on to try new recipes. My culinary journey so far has been extremely rewarding and exciting. Through this forum I look forward to expand my culinary repertoire and nurture my passion for writing.
