its been almost 10 months in my cooking career.
the subject of my blog might be deceiving to u, ok let me make it clear in the starting itself. you might be thinking what could be these lessons learned ...ummmm...like
how much water you should put in wheat while you make chapati's/breads...or
how to make round chapati or proper way to cook chapati...or
how much chilli..salt...spices etc etc you should put while you make vegetable...and blah blah blah
well chill out......the lessons which i have learned arent transient, but everlasting, nonfading which every one of us might have experienced but may have given a cursory thought that time
This is for all Mom's : during my good/bad cooking days, i have learned, how difficult it is for a mother to provide a versatility in everyday menu, if sometime there is less salt, or more chilli or absence of spices, how we mood off and forgets the hard work behind the preparation. should we really behave like that, even we are also not perfect in our job. Even we, infact everyone needs motivation in our job, like mother needs appreciation when the food is fantastic or lil sad :) sometimes lil critic (though in a good sense).
I learned, what you can say experienced when sometime my chapati/bread's takes some country map, when i have no choice but to make maggi, when i have to go to hawker centre and purchase vegetables and decide the menu for a week or when i burn or cut my hand.
I strongly believe everyone should get their due credit, should keep their cool and from time to time motivate ur peer to get out of sometimes so called monotonous life :)
love u Mom :)

Jhav a very nice blog !!Well i guess mera bhi similar experience raha hai though meri cokking history is very old... But the point u brought about moms and prefection in food is really very touching and i completely agree with you...and yes Kudos to all Mummys.
And yes at certain places there has been very profound usage of words which is very refreshing and makes it sound nice. Bhai keep writing ...
Nice post Amit..Although I am not a cook ..never tried my hand at anything other than egg burjee,omelette or maggi...but yes can understand the point you are making..We get frustrated if we have to do the same work for more than two projects and here we have people who are doing the same work for more than 20 years...People really want others to appreciate or at least comment.....
Keep writing and learning :)
