Welcome to Savi’s Kitchen!
I dedicate this page to my handsome son ❤ and beautiful daughter!💖 Since we moved to America, my son and daughter have grown up in Western culture and haven’t been exposed to the traditional Indian way of cooking. I try my best to make as many Indian dishes as I can and teach them all I know. They are growing older and will be moving away. They have both been asking me to write down my recipes for them. So, I decided to create this page to guide them. I thought of making it available to my friends’ children who are growing up in American culture. And also, for those who want to explore Indian cooking.
