Karunai Kizhangu Karakuzhambu

             At the time when i was newly married, i am poor in cooking.
Few things which i can make are rice, dal, egg and some stir fry veggie's...

After a year only i realised that i have to learn cooking, relative's  used to critisis me for lack of my knowledge in cooking but they never helped in teaching me.  I never mind...

only reason i got fell in love with this culinary art is my husband...Yeah he is a Foodie...He loves to eat varities, a perfect combination and he appreciate the recipe which really deserve the appreciation...

Then after a year of marriage i slowly started to learn cooking through watching TV programs about cooking and also got few cookery books...First i learnt different varieties of chicken..i have to thanks to Chef Dr.Damu, i am a fan of his cooking programs, then slowly moved to Internet search for recipes...and now into blogging.

I like Yam alot, usually we can make masiyal, stir fry, chips, kola and so many varities...
