Cooking has been something I have been doing since a very young age, I cannot truly trace when it changed into a passion. A few years in between as a full time working mom helped me find a lot of short cuts in cooking without compromising on taste & health. I have always loved, relished & derived pleasure from cooking, be it a simple one pot dish or an elaborate recipe, with my love for clicking adding more pleasure to this process in the recent years. Archana kitchen provides a great platform for upcoming bloggers/food lovers to showcase their recipes & reach more food lovers. The best I like about the food contributors columns is that I can find only one recipe for an item/dish which gives me a great sense of uniqueness. Also I love how similar recipes are linked to recipes from other contributors.

Cooking was just a pass time until few years ago. I have spent hours just looking at food pictures from various blogs, watching youtube cookery channels etc.One such website that motivated me to start my own blog, was Archana's Kitchen. After few years of blogging,now being one of the recipe contributors to the same website makes me really happy. Connecting with like minded people, learning about new cooking techniques,new ingredients,various foodculture makes this whole process of food based writing even more interesting!

Cooking has been my passion since early years of my life. Being a foodie, my family has also been spoiled with my everyday cooking experiments. Chronicles of my everyday cooking has been my learning curve in my cooking journey. To nurture my creativity and to forecast my fusion style of cooking, my blog 'Good Food Good Mood' started breathing. I have fall head over heels in love with Archana's simple and easy cooking fundas. Sharing my recipes with such a fertile platform as Archana's has turned my inspiration into reality. I am thankful to Archana and her recipe website which grants an opportunity to a fresh crop of bloggers to showcase their work.

Cooking, I consider it as a challenge each day because I want to show some difference in what I cook for my tiny world ! ' I care for what goes inside' by giving my family variations in taste. Archana's kitchen was the first website I referred to when I started cooking on my own. It gives a massive opening even to the simplest recipes/dishes and people notice it instantly. Archana and team - you all have been doing a great job, inspiring people like me to go that extra bit and proving that our own kitchen counter gives us all the opportunity to prove our mettle !

I’m an IT professional. After working several years in IT as software engineer, I quit my job to start my own company. I run a small firm. We provide educational service to children; we offer Robotics training for children. Food has always been my passion and so I eventually forayed into food blogging, food styling and food photography.Food photography was something that came along with food blogging. Being one of the recipe contributor for Archana's kitchen has made my blogging journey a wonderful one. It is a true honor to be a part of Archana's kitchen. Since I joined AK, I have started to experiment on recipes that are new to me and to experience the culture and food traditions of various other regions thorough this journey gives me immense pleasure. Thank you Archana.

I believe cooking is an art and connects family together. It makes me feel happy when my family appreciates me for the food prepared. By working with Archana's Kitchen, I was introduced to many Indian recipes which I wouldn't have tried otherwise. I like the way every month Team Archana’s Kitchen selects the theme and recipes.

This is my first exposure to such a wide platform where lots and lots of talented people share their creations and skills. "Archana's Kitchen" is a wide platform, through which my recipes are getting exposure to people. They reach people faster than I could imagine. She showcases all recipes very well and makes them appealing and answers all queries of her readers. This platform gives a huge audience for people, recipes and talent. Her weekly meal-plans are the best! When I told my husband about this,he said "Wow! what an idea to plan a weeks meal and do shopping". The recipe contests are the best! They are motivating to create new recipes and share them! Keep up the good work! All the best!

I have been associated with Archana's Kitchen (AK) as a contributing writer for just under 2 months, yet it feels like home. The team is extremely quick to respond to all your queries and I love the way their weekly menu plans are sent over a weekend to help any home cook plan their meals better : a judicious balance of nutrition and taste along with aesthetic appeal is what keeps these menu plans going .. I also love their ongoing contests and theme based dishes that come out during the week . Their media / PR / brand engagement is also pretty commendable. All in all looks like a winner's team @ AK !! Here's more to Girl Power :))

Cooking is something that I picked up as a life-skill (felt like a chore :) ) at a very young age and to my great surprise it has now become an extension of myself. It is a thread that connects me to the people I love and cherish. The joy of witnessing happy faces at the end of a hearty meal is matchless and cooking enables me experience that joy every single day. It is an activity that not only calms me but also allows me to be adventurous at the same time!! My love for cooking introduced me to this fascinating world of ‘food blogging’ which in-turn brought me to ‘Archana’s Kitchen’ an excellent platform for bloggers like me. I absolutely like this concept of being a ‘Contributing Food Writer' and sharing the recipes and food wisdom with a larger audience. To create a space where one is able to share regional as well as contemporary dishes on a same platform is what I like the most about Archana’s Kitchen. I also admire the camaraderie that the bloggers share on this space. In Archana’s Kitchen I definitely am amidst extremely dynamic group of women who share the same passion for food, to be more precise healthy food. Am glad to be a part of it. Thank you for giving me this opportunity

Writing recipes for Archana’s Kitchen has been very fulfilling, just choosing so many recipes keeps my curious brain in top gear. I couldn’t have done so many in such a short time just through my blog. It’s given me and my work a larger audience than I can imagine. And the work culture with Archana and her team has been the easiest. She gives me the freedom to explore without many restrictions. Most of all, cooking such variety has kept my family very satisfied and ‘What’s new today?’ became my kid and hubby’s favorite question, and I cherish that very much.

There have been so many family recipes that i had forgotten they existed. In an excitement to learn new dishes, a lot of our family recipes had taken a back seat. Thanks to Archana's Kitchen, and their value to regional recipes, i have started digging up those old treasures.

The thrill of learning new cuisines, understanding the culture behind these recipes and trying it out in the comfort of my kitchen, seeing the joy and happiness in the face of my family while tasting this ,keeps me driving towards more learning and cooking. My love for photography actually drove me into blogging and which eventually led to contributing to various websites but all this would not have been possible without Archana’s Kitchen which taught me how to write a recipe professionally and giving me a wonderful platform to showcase my passion for food.
