I am sharing with you all my personal recipes, inspired by people I have associated with and, to some extent, created by me; tried and tested. These recipes emerged as I went through trials as a full-time student; struggling to get rid of fast food and switching to home cooking.

This is my ONE-STOP thread for all my personal recipes that I would be sharing with you all. Please feel free to ask me any questions that you may have.
