    Jaggery and Cardamon Banana Cake

    To make this cake divine, use bananas that are very ripe – the ones that have brown flecks on the peel. Bananas contain tryptophan, an amino acid that helps your body produce serotonin, a natural substance that has a calming effect on the brain and can act as a gentle sedative.  I used dark jaggery and used a fine grater to grate it.  Go on try baking this cake.

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.
