Hi foodie, I’m Nikita.

A few years ago, life threw all of us into the unexpected pause of the pandemic. I was living alone, with no family nearby, and suddenly, eating out wasn’t an option anymore. So, I turned to my little kitchen — not out of choice at first, but out of necessity.

I still remember those early days — burnt rotis, undercooked rice, and the occasional kitchen disaster. But slowly, I started experimenting. I tried recipes from my childhood memories, called my mother to help out with ingredients , recreated dishes I loved, and even came up with my own twists. Day by day, cooking went from a survival skill to something I truly enjoyed. I found cooking as my new hobby.

From lockdown experiments to a kitchen full of flavour.

Along the way, I picked up countless tips and tricks — how to make food taste better with minimal ingredients, how to save time in the kitchen, and how to cook healthy meals without losing flavour.

That’s when it clicked — if cooking could bring me so much joy and comfort during hard times, maybe my recipes could help someone else too.

So, I started Home Cooking Life — a space where I share recipes, kitchen hacks, and little food stories from my heart to yours. Whether you’re cooking for one, for your family, or just starting your kitchen journey, you’ll find something here to make your cooking easier, tastier, and more fun.
Because for me, food isn’t just about eating — it’s about creating warmth, memories, and a little happiness on a plate.

Welcome to my kitchen. Let’s cook together.
