This is my personal website/blog, in which I am going to share with you a range of recipes that I have an immense passion -♥ – for. They include European, Asian and South-Asian recipes that offer variety of culinary tastes to your palate.
Over the years, from my own experience and that of my friends and acquaintances, I came to realize that the real sensation of a food lover stems from both its taste and visual appeal; that’s why all good chefs across the globe, celebrity or otherwise, make an extra effort to make sure that the latter is as significant as the former.
In short, the ‘presentation’ is as important as the taste. So, I see no exception – when sharing the recipes too. In this context, I take special care to offer my recipes along with the right imagery, drawing a stream of inspiration from the old cliché – a picture is worth a thousand words.
The recipes that I am sharing here are from all major culinary cultures: European, Asian, South Asian and of course, Middle Eastern. I am a firm believer that if something is traditional, especially when it comes to food – and recipes as well – it is always right; because, it is an indication that they have stood the test of time.
Good cooks are often ‘accused’ of not revealing the ‘secret ingredient’, something they keep to themselves.I don’t agree with that; nor do I encourage it.
The secret of a good cook is wonderfully described by none other than Lady Clementine, the wife of Winston Churchill, the war-time British prime minister, who encouraged her cook to hand down her recipes to the next generations, simply to inspire others: “When at the outbreak of war 1939, Mrs Landemare came to see me and offered us her full-time services, I was enchanted because I knew she would be able to make the best out of rations and that everyone in the household would be happy. She remained with me for 15 years, and when in 1954 she retired, I was at a loss. Mrs Landemare’s food is distinguished. She is an inspired and intuitive cook and it is I who encouraged her to write this book. I hope her readers will find it of value, but I expect they will have to try again and again before they get the magic touch.”
As Lady Clementine clearly identified, it is the combination of both intuition and passion that drives cooks to become who they are, while making their recipes breathtakingly unique.
Some of my recipes will certainly offer you a secondary benefit too as a culinary tool to fight fat, a very modern urgency or at least, keep it at bay. Enjoy, share and provide me with your comments.
Bon appétit! 🙂
