Hello and welcome to Ravs Kitchen! My name is Raveena Lalwani Shah and I’m here to share my family recipes, my own creations, and all my love for cooking with you guys! Ever since I was young, I’ve been surrounded by great cooks in my family and gradually picked it up myself. My biggest inspirations have been my mom and my grandmother; so let’s just say cooking is in my blood! Although I am Indian, my favorite cuisines range so much further than just our beloved South Asian dishes and you’ll begin to see what that entails as you take this journey with me.
I love trying new things and playing with different flavors. My travels have also inspired my love of all sorts of food and that is what I hope to share with you all on my blog. Cooking is therapeutic for me and I like to have fun while doing it; let’s be honest, who doesn’t love food!
Ever since I got married, I started cooking even more than I used to when I lived at home, but here’s the twist: I am Sindhi, so I grew up eating non-vegetarian food, but I married a Gujarati who is completely vegetarian, and therefore, my household is completely vegetarian. So I’ve come up with some creative ways to get my meat fixes, while still being completely vegetarian, along with all the other traditional recipes we know and love.
So let’s keep our hearts happy and our bellies full with some yummy food, always! Thank you for being a part of my cooking journey and I hope you love everything I have to offer!
