    Unni Appam

    I have eaten unniyappam in Kerala on different occasions, and each time I discovered something new about it. I have created my own version here and you can choose to fry the unniyappam in lots of ghee or use minimal ghee – however, the important thing to note here is that unniyappam will never taste nice if ghee is not used!

    Indian Style Pupunha Spaghetti

    It was a satisfying lunch – not overly heavy and I know for a fact that heart of palm is low in calories compared to actual pasta. It is versatile too as you can add it to any salad or curry.  Try stir frying it with vegetables.  It will be very nice in curries that have coconut milk example Thai green curry, a vegetable Korma or even the lemak sayur.

Devagi Sanmugam

As a chef, spice curator, and author of over 20 cookbooks, my life revolves around the exquisite world of food. I am deeply passionate about experiencing food in all its forms—I love to see, touch, smell, hear, and feel the ingredients that create culinary magic. Each spice tells a story, every herb evokes a memory, and the textures of food bring joy to my senses. Traveling is not just a pastime for me; it is an essential part of my journey as a culinary educator. Exploring diverse cuisines around the world allows me to expand my knowledge and understanding of food, enriching both my cooking and teaching. I revel in discovering new flavors and techniques that I can share with others, igniting their own passion for cooking. This blog is a heartfelt expression of my love for food—a platform where I can share my culinary adventures, insights, and recipes. Join me as we explore global cuisine, celebrating the beautiful and delicious experiences that food offers.
