Food is considered to be sacred in
When I was small I was always taught not to waste food in my plate, my mom would say food is Ummachi (God).
On festive days special kind of sweets and savories are made offered to God and distributed among friends and relatives.
I have created this blog to post some of the dishes I make on a daily basis mostly dishes made in Palakkad Iyer houses. I have adapted recipes from my mother, grandmother, books, internet and some of them my own . I try to diversify my cooking too, so you might see some North Indian and Western food. Also whenever festivals come I try to make some snacks and will update them in my blog. Also the measurements I have given are approximate.
Safe and Happy Cooking!
