Yrs Experience

Growing up in a vibrant Punjabi household, I absorbed the art of cooking from my mom, who imparted centuries-old culinary wisdom with each dish. From kneading dough for soft rotis to perfecting the balance of spices in aromatic curries, her guidance nurtured my passion for cooking. Drawing on this rich heritage, I fuse traditional Punjabi flavors with contemporary techniques, creating dishes that honor my roots while embracing innovation. Every meal I prepare is a tribute to the warmth and hospitality of Punjab, infused with the love and care that characterize our family's kitchen. Whether recreating cherished recipes or experimenting with new flavors, I remain anchored in the traditions that shaped my culinary journey. With each dish, I strive to share the vibrant tastes and cultural richness of Punjab, inviting others to experience the joy and authenticity of Punjabi cuisine.

My journey as a cook began in the heart of my Punjabi household, where the aromas of spices and the sizzle of tadka filled the air. Growing up immersed in this rich culinary tradition, I learned the art of cooking not from textbooks or professional kitchens, but from the greatest teacher of all—my mom.From a young age, I watched with fascination as my mom expertly wielded her masalas and transformed simple ingredients into mouthwatering delights. Every dish she prepared was infused with love, care, and generations of culinary wisdom passed down through our Punjabi heritage.As I grew, so did my passion for cooking. I experimented with new recipes, improvised with local ingredients, and expanded my repertoire beyond traditional Punjabi fare. Yet, no matter how far my culinary adventures took me, I always returned to the flavors of home—the comforting warmth of dal, the richness of butter chicken, the tanginess of achaar—each dish a nostalgic reminder of my roots and the lessons imparted by my mom.Today, as a cook with a deep appreciation for Punjabi cuisine and a lifetime of hands-on experience in the kitchen, I bring not only technical skill but also a profound respect for the cultural heritage that shapes my culinary identity. Whether I'm recreating cherished family recipes or putting a modern twist on classic dishes, I do so with reverence for the flavors, traditions, and memories that continue to inspire me every day. In every dish I prepare, I strive to capture the essence of Punjab—its warmth, its hospitality, and above all, its love for good food. And though my journey as a cook began at home, it's a journey that I carry with me wherever I go, enriching the lives of others one delicious meal at a time.
