Welcome to The Pinch of Masala!
Hi! I’m Puspa, the heart, hands, and spice behind this blog.
Cooking has always been more than just recipes for me — it’s where stories simmer, memories stir, and flavors come alive. Whether it’s the comforting aroma of tadka or the joy of kneading dough while chatting with family, food has shaped so many chapters of my life.
🌶️ Why “The Pinch of Masala”?
Because sometimes, that tiny pinch of spice is what transforms a dish — just like small moments that make life rich and memorable. This blog is my way of sharing those delicious details.
Here, you’ll find:
- Simple Indian recipes anyone can try
- Quick meals for busy days
- Occasional family favorites with stories behind them
- And always, a little masala sprinkled in 🌿
📍 From My Kitchen to Yours
I believe great food doesn’t need to be complicated. It just needs a little heart — and maybe a pinch of masala 😉
Whether you’re a beginner, a student away from home, or just craving home-style Indian food, I hope you’ll find something here that brings joy to your plate.
Thanks for stopping by — now let’s get cooking!
