Kadahi Paneer

I am so excited to combine my culinary skills with my new found love for photography . I was working full time as an IT contractor in USA and had to leave my job because of no good day cares in India . I can't send my son to filthy and unprofessional place , not worth at all !! Whew since then it's me and my son all day long :) playing , eating , going to park.


I am back to cooking as I wasn't getting time earlier because of my job.I dared to start with one of my mom's renowned recipe - KADAHI PANEER.
