Due to many e-mails and comments, I have tried to make recipe search on Monsoon Spice more user friendly. There are four ways you can search your favourite recipes.
1. Search Recipes by Ingredients: You can now browse recipes based on main ingredients used. It is listed under different categories in alphabetical order on the side bar of Monsoon Spice.
2. Search Recipes by Title: The drop-down list on the side bar of Monsoon Spice and on Recipe Index Page lists the recipes by region, type and courses.
3. Google Search: You can also browse the recipe you want by simply entering the key word on Google search engine on the side bar of Monsoon Spice and on this Recipe Index Page.
4. Search Recipes by Month: You can browse the recipes by month by clicking on the month on archive section listen on the side bar of Monsoon Spice.
Monsoon Spice Recipe Index is laid out for visitors to come and pick their meal in an easy way. I have categorised this Recipe Index is two ways.
1. One is to choose recipes based on Regions from which they come from.
2. Second is based on the meal types.
Being a Vegetarian, I blog Vegetarian Recipes in Monsoon Spice and most of them are Satwik in nature. Each and every dish created and blogged in Monsoon Spice is prepared with utmost love and passion. I have tried to recreate the same magic in my small kitchen which I have grown watching it happen everyday in my Amma (Mother) and Ajji's (Grandma) kitchen. Thus its no surprise that most of the recipes I have blogged are the ones I learnt from my Amma, Ajji, Aunts and Friends. Other recipes are the ones which I tried from fellow bloggers, cookery books and shows, internet etc. And there are few recipes which are the results of occasional accidents happening in our kitchen by me and my much better half, Krish. Hence most of the Recipes blogged in Monsoon Spice are the one’s which we cook regularly at home or whatever we fancy eating. The recipes blogged are something which we ate, loved and want to replicate the same in future. Monsoon Spice is our treasure box of recipes which satisfies both our tummy and soul which I am sharing with you now.
I consider myself to be an amateur cook when it comes to cooking. I have just started this wonderful journey of culinary experience and I am eager to absorb the lessons I learn on my way. So be patience and correct me if I have gone wrong and posted something which you think is not quite right. I am more than happy to get your feedback and suggestion to make Monsoon Spice more interactive and interesting place for you.
