From the Kitchen

I just realised that I hardly write about cooking, which I happen to enjoy very much. I’m not the type who will cook rice and curry everyday and my close friends don’t find it strange anymore when they find me nursing a large steaming vat of Watalappan at 10pm in the night.

My cooking style is a mix of recipe book inspiration, ammi’s classics, impromptu fix-its and methods of making the mundane a little more interesting. I’m also a little crazy about presentation and will find any excuse to buy that-square-ceramic-plate-that-is-2cm-smaller-than-the-one-I-already-own. The hub has given up on my glassware obsession 🙂 So here’s a peek at some of the goodies.

Breakfast at home on weekends is generally a fun affair. This was a day that everything came together and looked pretty on table 🙂
