I'm a Creative Chef, hot sauce maker, and the person behind every recipe on this site.
I trained in Bharatnatyam before I trained in the kitchen, and it turns out they're the same discipline: precision, improvisation, heritage, and the courage to make something that moves people.
I grew up in an Indian kitchen where flavor was never optional. Now I spend my days reimagining those bold, heritage flavors for the way we eat today. Whether I'm developing a new sauce, sharing a weeknight recipe, or cooking a private dinner for your family, it all comes from the same place.
Food is how I tell stories. Pull up a chair.

Start CookingBring the flavor home. Three handcrafted sauces, each named after a woman who shaped how I cook. Zero sugar. Small batch. All heart.
Meet the SaucesLet me cook for you. Intimate dinners, performance meal prep, and celebrations where every plate is a performance.
Learn More"What did my Nani make?"
Every recipe starts with the flavors I grew up with. Bold spices, slow-cooked warmth, the kind of food that tells a story before you take a bite.
"How do I feel after I eat this?"
I cook food that fuels you. Zero sugar sauces. Balanced macros. Heritage flavors that nourish, because our food was always good for you.
"Would I plate this for someone I love?"
Every dish, every bottle, every private dinner gets the same care. A dancer's precision. A grandmother's generosity. That's the standard.
Every bottle tells a story. Every name honors a woman.
Grandmother
Named after my Nani, who cooked with fearless hands and never once apologized for making it spicy. This sauce is her spirit in a bottle.
The Crescendo.
Hot Chili Garlic Fire.
Queen
My mother-in-law earned this name the first time she welcomed me into her kitchen. Bright, balanced, and the kind of warmth that makes you feel like family.
The Melody.
Medium Green Chutney.
Friend
The sauce that's always welcome. Named for friendship, with two cats on the label, because every good kitchen has a supervisor (or two).
The Rhythm.
Medium Pineapple Mango.

MediumThis is a fantastic way to incorporate beets if this is your first time experimenting! By no means is this a traditional pad thai, but i've tried my best to capture all of the essential flavors…and OH! it's vegan, so you're stomach will be happy too! ⏱️ Total Time: 30 minutes

MildWhenever I buy herbs for one dish, I always have leftovers that end up going bad and it makes me wonder why I can't just incorporate new herbs into dishes that I already make. For this recipe, I revamped the traditional pesto by using Thai basil and kale in order to up the greens, but also bring a unique flavor profile into the dish. This pesto pasta can be served hot or cold, and pair SO well with fresh, juicy cherry tomatoes! ⏱️ Total Time: 30 minutes

MediumIf you're obsessed with crispy tacos, but want a healthier alternative - try these! This recipe combines crispy cast iron skillet mushrooms, fresh onions, and lots of zesty garlic all wrapped up in almond flour tortillas. I always top my tacos off with my mom's amazing avocado crema made with Greek yogurt. ⏱️ Total Time: 35 minutes

MediumThere's nothing more important than breakfast and sourdough bread in my opinion. This recipe packs in a lot of protein, veggies, and spices for those breakfast lovers looking for a well balanced start to the day! I love eating this with a nice big cup of coffee, chutney, and ketchup ⏱️ Total Time: 15 minutes

HotI looked to Taco Bell this time to inspire my Keema Quesarito. YES - it is a quesadilla with spicy keema (minced meat), cilantro rice, sour cream, and a whole lot of queso. I would essentially call this a MUCH healthier and tastier version of the Taco Bell classic. For some, this might be another meal prep classic. You can transform the ingredients into a delicious bowl or enjoy it as a quesadilla! ⏱️ Total Time: 50 minutes

MildI made these super easy pancakes for breakfast last week with all of leftover blueberries I had in my fridge. Let me tell you, they turned out full of sweetness from the added sugar in the bananas along with a touch of honey that I put into my blueberry compote. I occasionally have a sweet tooth, and this definitely felt like a throwback to an IHOP breakfast that I used to get during the holidays on those chilly mornings. ⏱️ Total Time: 25 minutes
