About Me & My Blog

Hello, I am Shweta, born and brought up in a lovely city , Belgaum-a place that lies in the zone of cultural transition between Karnataka, Maharashtra and Goa.


I have a fascination for cooking...I learnt basic cooking seeing my mom and my grandmother. And later what ever I have learnt was my own interest and fascination and as time passed I realised that I have learnt varieties of cuisines. As soon as I started receiving accolades from near and dear ones, that’s when I realised how important cooking was in my life.


Post wedding, I moved to Hyderabad, and this is where I started learning Andhra cuisines. My hubby and my in laws loved my food. Then my hubby came up with an idea to start a blog and so with his, my in laws and my parents help here I am with my blog. The beginning of creating this blog was not so easy but over a period of time when my family and relatives gave me confidence to start, I began focusing seriously.


This blog covers varieties of dishes starting from soups to desserts. I am vegetarian and a maharashtrian so you may find lot of vegetarian and maharashtrian dishes. I am still a beginner in Non Veg. Cooking vegetarian dishes was quite simple for me but the real test came when I began cooking non vegetarian dishes (my hubby's favourite)..so in a way experimenting non veg dishes definitely has helped me and slowly i am trying to expertise on them(There is a saying vegetarians are great cooks when it comes to preparation of non-vegetarian dishes).


I thought of maintaining a repository of recipe's in the form of a blog which would help others in experimenting with the recipes which I have learnt over the years, with numerous interactions with friends, near and dear ones.


I believe the real taste of preparation of any recipes lies in its simplicity, ease of preparation and a blend of taste and so I have addressed my blog as " Shweta's Simple Recipes"


Please send me your inputs on how you enjoyed the dishes you made from my recipes. I would love to hear your sincere feedback and comments which would surely give me encouragement to perform even better.


Shweta signs off...happy cooking...
