Koken uit India

About

Indian cooking, passed on with love

I came to the Netherlands from Delhi four years ago, and quickly missed the flavour of home. Koken uit India is how I share it.

The story

I came to the Netherlands about four years ago. As beautiful as I found the country, one thing was missing: flavour. I grew up in Delhi, the heart of India, where flavour-packed food is part of every meal, three times a day. Suddenly, that was gone.

I tried the Indian restaurants here, hoping to find a taste of home, but the food rarely felt authentic. Sometimes a dish wasn't even what the menu promised. So I decided to cook the food I was craving myself. Coming from India, I knew exactly how it was supposed to taste and which ingredients it needed.

Whenever I had friends over, they loved the food, but had no idea how to make it themselves. That's where Koken uit India was born: a way to share Indian cooking so that people understand the basics of the cuisine and aren't afraid to try it.

Whether you want to cook something different, surprise your kids, add new dishes to your menu, or simply follow your curiosity, I'd love to show you that delicious food asks only one thing of you: the willingness to try. Together, I'll guide you to cook some of the most delicious Indian food you've ever tasted.
