Priya's Food Bites

Priya's Food Bites

Welcome to my collection of home-cooked recipes, inspired largely by the flavors and traditions of Tamil Nadu. These pages bring together everyday family favorites I have learned watching my mother and grandmother cook at home, where I learned the nuances of cooking. These pages also include family festive dishes, and recipes I have gathered from friends, TV shows during the 1990s and refined over the years.

You will find South Indian staples such as idlis, dosas, adais, upmas, chutneys, podis, rice varieties, curries, kozhambus, poriyals, and varuvals, along with breads, biryanis, snacks, sweets, and meat and seafood dishes.

I recently moved my cooking pages to this new home. I created the original pages in early 2000s when shorts, vlogs and youtube videos were not a thing for cooking. These were hand written recipes to purely share my love of cooking to the world, in the hope that generations to come can use these. I hope to continue to bring more of my recipes online. Please check back as the collection grows!
