I am originally from India living in Belgium for the last 20 years. Over the years my family and friends have requested me to share my recipes many times. Most of my foods are cooked from a memory of an event or a taste remembered or a food appreciated and measurements are approximate (or from internet search) In this Blog I would like to share my experience of living in Europe and Foods from around the world. There are many versions of the same recipe with a different name in different cultures. I try to keep most of the recipes simple and healthy so that Working Women, Young Mothers with small children, Single people and Students living away from home can eat balanced meal in their busy week without much effort. Some of the recipes are Sugar free or gluten free or Eggless keeping in mind friends and relatives with different habits and needs. I also share some positive thought on my blog so that we can bridge the gap between traditional and modern thinking. Thank you, my whole family, cousins, friends and followers and readers of my blog, for your support. Peace and Happiness is my Motto. NJ
