About Me

Hi! I am Ashwini and welcome to my blog.

I like to call myself a 'wishful polymath'. I am a creativity-lover and appreciate any form of expression and innovation. Cooking is one such art that tops my list of favorite activities. It is also something that I do on a daily basis, so one fine day I thought, why not blog it? Now here I am, cooking, photographing and writing.

My 'real job' is of an engineer but blogging helps keep the right side of my brain dynamic. I am an Indian expat living in Germany with my husband. Hence, my culinary enthusiasm is influenced by variety and I strive to balance Indian and Western flavors. 

In this blog, I am sharing vegetarian, pan-global recipes (both own and referred), sometimes with an Indian twist that I actually cook and eat everyday. I like to be both eclectic and original with my recipes. I am no 'Julia Child', aspiring to revolutionize how people cook and eat; nor am I a gourmet chef with a discerning palate for indigenous cuisines. I cook everything but I do put in my skill and artistry into what I make and enjoy making the small group of people around me happy.
If you do too - then you are at the right place!
