Welcome to SMARTSPICE

My recipes have been developed with some knowledge of cooking assumed. More importantly, be adventurous, the weights and measures can be varied according to taste – use the recipe's as a guide!!

I hope you thoroughly enjoy the dishes I have composed. I have prepared all of the dishes myself, and they have been consumed and enjoyed by friends and family alike.

I have included more authentic cooking influenced by the west Indian state of Gujarat where my parents were born. I have enjoyed my mothers cooking for a number of years and most of these Gujarati dishes have been influenced by her cooking – try them and see. I would agree it is not for all and some are an acquired taste, but they are my favourites.

I have taken this opportunity to share with friends, family and incidental surfers alike!!  (All Gujarati dishes have been pre-fixed with – Gujarati) SO ENJOY!!… And let me have your comments.
