Hello! I am Minal Sharma, a blogger, foodie, curator, self-declared food connoisseur, recipe creator, housewife, and mother of two. I have been blogging for the past 15 years and I do all the cooking, photography, and writing here at Minal’s Spice World.
Ever since I was a young girl I was intrigued by all things food. Although coming from a humble Indian family I hardly got any opportunity to try the bounty of cuisines and varieties of foods and desserts available in the world. I realized that even Indian cuisine has so much to offer. Which is why you will see a lot of Indian Food here.
However, it was only after I got married to an Army Officer and explored the country, and met people from around the world, did my culinary skills took a leap! I was traveling around the vast Indian Continent and coming across all these brilliant traditional recipes. Each state, and each city with unique yet delicious food to offer. I also met many people and was exposed to foods from around the world, and obviously, the introduction of the internet helped. You will read a lot about my army life and travels in this blog.
I started Minal’s Spice World shortly after my daughters entered secondary school and I had more time to spare. With more than 30 years of experience in cooking, baking, and dessert making, I have cumulated a long list of recipes that continues to improve and expand each day. I love to learn new recipes from different cuisines and modify them with my own twists and flavors. You will also see many non-vegetarian recipes turned into vegetarian ones in this blog with almost the same or even better taste.
You will find recipes from around the world in my Blog with a special focus on English, Chinese, and Indian Recipes, but with a difference. I love modifying and twisting recipes and it is my forte. You will find a huge variety of desserts, chocolates, puddings, curries, finger food, and even Indian sweets. You will find the bread of all kinds, sourdough bread, stuffed breads, flatbreads, fried breads it’s all here.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this little sneak peek into my life, experiences, and who I am. I am really looking forward to getting to know all of you, wonderful people! Be sure to check out all my recipes here on Minal’s Spice World. If you try one of my recipes, please leave a. Comment and let me know if you liked it! All feedback, good or bad, is much appreciated.
