Hello everyone! Thanks a bunch for stopping by. I’m Sandhya Rathore, originally from Udaipur, Rajasthan. Udaipur, often called the “Venice of India,” is a beautiful city known for its enchanting lakes and majestic palaces. Just like Venice in Italy, Udaipur is famous for its picturesque setting with stunning lakes, making it a charming and romantic destination. The serene waters of Lake Pichola and Fateh Sagar add to the city’s unique allure, creating a captivating atmosphere that has earned Udaipur its delightful nickname, the “Venice of India. Rajasthan is not just a place for me; it’s a blend of different tastes, languages, cultures, and styles. I’m always excited to learn new things.

Over the years, I’ve been collecting recipes from my family and friends, both traditional and classic ones. I wanted to put them all together in an online journal, and that’s how Sandhya’s recipes came to life. It’s a mix of my love for cooking, food photography, and styling.

Let me be honest – I’m not an expert chef. I’ve made my fair share of mistakes, and sometimes I’m totally clueless in the kitchen. But here in this space, I promise to share the best of what I’m learning, keeping it real and authentic. I enjoy sharing super easy recipes that you can whip up in just a few minutes. Fancy trying out some of my easy-peasy curry recipes?

So, here I am, a Stirring Mummy, dealing with the daily chaos of being a full-time cook, handling fussy kids, being a loving wife, trying my hand at food photography and styling, exploring writing, and playing the role of an art director at Sandhya’s recipes.

Feel free to explore my little corner of the internet and dive into some simple and delicious recipes. If you have any questions or just want to say hi, don’t hesitate to reach out. Happy cooking !!

My Journey

“I wasn’t very good at cooking before. Sometimes, I didn’t have time to learn, especially during my studies. In 2004 I got married to a Gujarati guy from Gujarat, while I am originally from Rajasthan. Our tastes were quite different, leading to daily discussions about food. I tried learning from YouTube, Gujarati friends, and relatives. I put in efforts to bridge the gap in our tastes.

I made it a mission to learn and collect new recipes. Whenever we went out, I tried to understand how the food was made and decorated in restaurants. After some time of learning, my son and daughter started enjoying my homemade food. They would happily take it to school and share it with friends and teachers.

My son loves my homemade pizza, pav bhaji, and butter paneer masala, while my daughter enjoys everything, especially cakes, donuts, chocolates, and shakes. I may not be an excellent cook, but I try my best to be a good mom, wife, and cook, aiming to prove myself in these roles.”.
