I am MADRAASI (Deepa), a busy housewife running behind two lovely and notorious kids. I hail from TUTICORIN, the southernmost coastal area of Tamil Nadu. Before my marriage I never ever know where the kitchen was there at home. My cooking started just after marriage, since I had no option to kill my time after my hubby to office. Slowly I started exploring different varieties of food and gradually it turned out as a passion. I started maintaining my own cook book with the recipes I try, gradually it started piling up and found difficult to maintain and carry around those cookbooks. This is how I started my FOODBLOG with all the recipes I have tried out in my kitchen. You can check out the recipes @ www.madraasi.com. I scribble a lot in my idle time; you can see those as well in the blog. As my passion keeps grooming, I am sure that more and more recipes will be added to the list.

You have a great blog with some great recipes and a great story. I am reaching out to you from http://www.itspotluck.com a social platform for Indian/Desi food lovers. It is a community of About 300 flood bloggers with thousands of recipes and counting. You might find some fellow bloggers from India and abroad as well on our platform. It is developed by someone like you who is a Indian mom/wife/daughter who is passionate about technology and in need of new recipes. This platform is aimed at addressing the love for Indian food by creating:
> A one stop shop for all Indian food related information.
> Create a democratic platform for home cooks to get noticed, appreciated and rewarded.
> Share the creative ways people are exploring Indian food – In fact going by number of Indian food blogs it’s quite evident that the real fun in Indian food is happening in the kitchens of Indian homes and not in star restaurants & cooking schools. Therefore, we also want this to be a platform for home cooks to get together and share ideas. We believe this platform would truly democratize the Indian food blogger community and give an equal opportunity for everyone to succeed.
The current services are just a beginning and we will be adding additional functionalities that will truly make this a global platform for Indian food.
