About

It all started with me helping my mother in kitchen ,where i was fascinated by the amazing world of spices and vegetables,sweets and savouries,all combined to churn out simple but yummy dishes at every meal.
It was this simplicity of traditional sindhi food that prompted me to come up with a collection of such delicious recipes,before they completely lose their importance in modern kitchens

I am Alka,born and brought up in a small town in Mumbai-India.After getting my bachelors degree in Microbiology,i got married to the most wonderful guy,and was soon blessed with a sweet kid.Life was moving at its own pace when suddenly my husband came up with this idea of sharing my recipes with online people
So here i am with lots of efforts of my hubby dear,and encouraging words from my families(my parents and parents-in-law)

Lots of hardwork needs to be put in,for every single post that is published here.So i will be obliged if every visitor on this site,will leave a comment or remark.It does encourage me to put in more efforts and suggestions are always welcomed to make this site more appealing,endearing ,informative and  useful

I would also like to appeal to the visitors,that since all the information on this site is copy righted,so kindly refrain from plagiarism,to avoid any legal procedures.

So Welcome to my world of simple but delicious sindhi food.Take a tour and hopefully enjoy it!

  3. Hi Alka,
    Found u on twitter….I am new to Sindhi food….thanks to u I can now get a few Sindhi taste in my kitchen….following u on twitter.

  4. Dear Alka, I found you on Gourmet India, and followed you here. we are both very fortunate to have learned to cook at our mothers’ side and I just wanted to say “thank you” for writing so nicely and so clearly. It is much appreciated. You may be surprised to know that an Italian (me) has such an interest in Indian food, when we obviously have many yummy things of our own, but Indian food is really my passion. I could eat it every day as if I were Indian, and not as most Westerners might, as a change from the usual. Go Go Alka ! Kindest regards paola

  5. Hi Alka

    I am a Sindhi and I love Sindhi food. But havent been cooking a lot of Sindhi food lately. U have inspired me to make some of my favourites again.

    Also would you know any sindhi caterer or cook who makes authentic sindhi food.

    Thanks

  6. Hello Alka,
    Beautiful website and wonderful recipes. Grew up in a half-sindhi household and used to love eating my grandmother’s food (Dad’s side was the sindhi half). After moving to the US, missed all that food. I recently came across your website and started trying some of the recipes. All of them have turned out beautifully, just like I remember from back home. Today is going to be the day for Saayi Dal, mmm!!
    THANK YOU for all your hard work in putting this website and sharing your knowledge and recipes.
    Kind regards,
    Ajay

  12. Thank you for your recipes. I am married to a Malayali but I miss the sindhi food that I used to get at home.. Thankfully, I can cook them by going through your blog.. Fortunately, my husband is very encouraging and adventurous, trying out all cuisines.

    Hi!! I am a sindhi, and my mom is a superb cook. All the recipes are genuine and authentic, just the way my mom has taught me to make them. But, it is wonderful to have them described so systematically, and with precise ingredients (and not from ‘andazo’)!!.

    Rina, the dish you are describing is called ‘chanaa chanwar’, and if you are still looking for the recipe, i’ll be happy to share it with you.
    Happy eating

  14. Hi Alka,
    You have done a great effort by sharing the wonderful sindhi recipes. I am still learning sindhi recipes and will always be thankful for giving us this wonderful wonderful sindhi recipe website.
    Divya.

  15. Hi Alka,

    Thank you so much for putting such a wonderful website. Every time I want to cook something good, I know where to get the PERFECT recipe from. It is very different from other websites, they way you write and explain your recipes is remarkable and leads to confusion free cooking. I am a Sindhi too and love cooking. There is no subsitute for “home cooked sindhi food”.

    Thanks again :)

    Regards,

  16. Hi,
    I grew up a small town of Maharashtra with a huge group of Sindhi friends.
    I loved their food so much that we would often share our lunch boxes at school.
    I tried to make the recipes thousands of times but never could get that taste.
    So today while searching for some good sindhi recipes I came across your site and was a little dissapointed as I did not find the recipe I was looking for.
    I loved this curry my friends mom would make, it had white kabuli chana and potatoes and I think the gravy had tamarind flavor to it. They would also make this curry made out of the seeds of Okra or Bhindi, God knows how, and I forgot to ask.
    Their Arbi curry was out of this world.
    also the drumsticks with rice roti I think.
    Their koki was delicious too, but I dont think they had onions in it.
    But I may be wrong.
    I loved their aloo paratha and also the moong daal paratha.
    I didn;t see any of these recipes so I was a little suprised.
    Can you please post these recipes.
    I would be so grateful.
    BTW even though I didn;t find my favorite recipes, your site is wonderful.
    I can see the hard work and I appreciate that.
    All recipes are mouth watering.
    Thanks
    Rina
