My name is Rajani and I am settled in Chennai, India for the past 11 years. I am from Trivandrum, Kerala.
I love food, trying out different recipes, taking pictures of food and writing simple things. So I decided to put it all together and start a food blog.
My husband Harish is a willing guinea pig to all my cooking trials. My 4 1/2 6 1/2-year-old son, Shreyas (aka kiddo), is a tougher nut to crack. He doesn’t warm up to experimental food very fast. So a small pot of plain rice and a cup of yogurt will always be there in the kitchen, as a back up.
We are vegetarians and the food here will be vegetarian too, mostly (but not just limited to) South Indian. I try my level best to cut short the tedious parts of cooking (well, I admit it – I AM lazy), so some of the recipes have an easier (mostly Microwave) version too.
You can contact me @ mykitchentrials[at]gmail[dot]com
Hope you will enjoy reading it!

ഹായ് രജനി,
ഞാനും കേരളത്തിൽ നിന്നാണെ ;) ആദ്യമായിട്ടാണ് ഞാൻ ഇവിടെ എത്തുന്നത്. രജനിയുടെ അടുക്കളയും, ഫോട്ടോകളും എല്ലാം വളരെ നന്നായിട്ടുണ്ട്. അനുമോദനങ്ങൾ. ബ്ലോഗ് തുടങ്ങാൻ പ്രേരിപ്പിച്ച ഹസ്ബന്ടിനും.
തുടർന്നും നല്ല നല്ല വിഭവങ്ങൾ പ്രതീക്ഷിക്കുന്നു.

Dear Rajani,
Greetings from Paris,France!
I am so happy to read your wonderful blog especially because you are so chatty..It is heaven for me to learn the small details of your wonderful culture perhaps, for me, even more delicious than making and eating your wonderful offerings….though this is a BIG debate!!
Here in Paris we have a large community from Sri Lanka…I can buy everything there at the big “cash and carry”…it is my favorite haunt!..aside from all the wonderful mouthwatering blogs like yours!!
So I thank you very much for your effort I look forward to reading you!
I send a BIG Kiss from Paris to you and all your readers!,
