Pan Love

Finally Bought this Pan

Happy to share a new gadget which is going to be my assistant for cooking class. I had been thinking of buying this for a long time. Most times other items which were important came first as priority and this pan got sidelined. And other times, budget was tight. Now, I finally made to buy this pan with wedges.

The next day I got it from Amazon, I use it for the Sandwich class and later I used it for the Sizzler and Steak class.

I enjoyed using it and the results was equally good. The grill lines on the meat and on the sandwich made it really worthy gadget in my kitchen.

Btw, which type of similar pan do you use for grilling? 

Online Cake Lessons in June 2020

Online Baking Class for Beginners

In this lockdown phase, I've temporally stopped all my face-to-face classes in Bangalore, Trivandrum and Hyderabad. Meanwhile, I have started virtual baking classes via Zoom.

All the classes are designed for beginner level onwards. Each new week, there's a fresh set of classes. In this new phase of teaching, there are many shortcoming, but somehow I'm trying my best to learn new skills, learn how to use technology and try to convince students of the new way of learning.

Not all are convinced of online learning. I get calls from students who are insisting to learn baking after the end of lockdown. I find it hard to convince them to choose online way as they stick to the traditional learning methodology. The good news is that, there are many who are willing to learn through interactive Live class. Apart from the participation, I feel students are recreating the recipes without much delay.

Sea Blue Fish Stall at Poonthi Road Kumarapuram

Blue Sea Fish Store Kumarapuram

Fresh Fish at Poonthi Road 

Fresh Sea Food in Trivandrum

I'm sharing  the pics of a recently opened fish store in our locality. This small business venture is run by two boys at Poonthi road. It's located opposite to Nikumjam apartment, Poonthi Road. Earlier they were running a fish stall near to AJ hall, but had to shut down. Now, they have taken a new shop, and giving it a fresh start.

So far, I have had good experience from this shop. The fish is fresh, it arrives early around 6 ish, they clean the fish and price is reasonable.

For home delivery and to know the availability, pls contact the below given numbers

Wishing them the best for this venture.
