Jhovaan - Meal (in Konkani)

I was inspired to cook by my Late Grandmother Mrs. Magdalene Aranha when I was barely 6 years old. I spent a lot of enjoyable days in her kitchen, smelling & tasting & sometimes helping prepare the food being cooked. This blog is dedicated to my Nana Maggie. I've lived in 5 countries and 18 cities, so I cook with a variety of influences and ingredients and that reflects in this blog.
