Hi

I am Aparna and welcome to this small virtual corner of mine, My Diverse Kitchen. I am the newest member of the food blogging community. I stumbled upon the world of food blogs while browsing for a recipe, some time back. Since then, I have been toying with the idea of sharing my experiences in my kitchen.

My daughter, the biggest fan of my cooking, has been after me to get going and even came up with the title for my blog.
So, what would be a better day than today, Vijayadashami (Vidyarambham), to make a start in this direction?

We are a food loving family and as long as the food is vegetarian (we do eat eggs) and looks good enough to eat, we are willing to give it a try. We are rooted in our traditional Palakkad Iyer cooking, and this is what is at our table for most of our meals. Yet we love the variety of other cuisines and are quite enthusiastic about exploring them.

My regular cooking includes a lot of diverse dishes sourced from family, friends and cookbooks. I have also come up with some originals, from cooking over the past few years! Another thing I truly enjoy, cooking-wise, is baking.

My Diverse Kitchen is open to you all with recipes from me. Please feel free to step in and also provide me with feedback. You may write to me at aparna@mydiversekitchen.com
Thank you and here’s to Good Food.

Aparna
