Hello Readers, Thank you for taking time to visit this blog...




As with every art, cooking also requires passion, interest and time... Irrespective of doing it as a leisure activity or on a regular basis, it involves dedication. The happiness you derive out of cooking by your self and serving is endless... esp someone appreciating your recipe...how nice it feels, is it not???




You may wonder about the title of this blog..Iyer Iyengar Kitchen...I am a Tanjore Iyer married to an Iyengar and picked up cooking by learning the delicacies of both the customs....and that is what I am sharing here... Recipes popular among the Tamil Iyer & Iyengar communities..




I would be really happy if this benefits atleast few of you....if you find this useful, pass this on to your friends..

Enter in to my Kitchen..

ஸ்ரீ ராம ஜெயம்.

Namaskarams, this is my first blog.

I start this blog with an aim of sharing my experiences and learnings inside a typical Brahmin kitchen..

I am an Iyer married to an Iyengar and hence can claim that i know to an extent on some delicacies that these Tamil Brahmin communities are noted for..

Most of the dishes that i share here are typically of Tanjore style which i learnt it from my Mom and Granny..

Take time to read this blog...even if this serves fruitful to any one of you, i am happy for it..

Regards,
Akila Vijayaraaman

    Excellent blog Akila. I disagree with the person who said Iyer and Iyengar cooking is the same. It might seem the same for somebody who doesn't know the nuances. Each has its strengths. I just love the Iyengar puliyodharai and Iyer vatha kuzhambu. You're doing a great job!! Keep it up!
