Hello! I’m Nita, and I’m so glad you’ve stopped by Nita’s Platter. For me, cooking has always been more than just putting food on the table—it’s about sharing stories, carrying on family traditions, and creating little moments of joy.
Growing up, I was surrounded by the colors and aromas of Indian spices, each dish connecting me to a rich heritage and a love for food that I’m excited to share with you.
I live in Canada with my husband and our 14-year-old son, and together, we’re a family of true food lovers, and my husband is my “partner in crime” in the kitchen.
Whenever we’re hit with the urge to cook something extraordinary with a twist, we head straight to our favorite place – the kitchen! Together, we experiment, taste, and perfect every recipe until it’s just right. Only then do we share it, knowing it’s a dish worth savoring. Our journey is about bringing you recipes where love and flavor meet perfection.
Each dish I create isn’t just a recipe; it’s a blend of the spices of home, the tastes we’ve acquired abroad, and the memories we’ve shared around the table. It’s a beautiful mix of heritage and discovery, brought to life through my blog.
Here, you’ll find our favorite recipes, cooking tips, and a sprinkle of culinary inspiration to bring joy to your kitchen. Whether you’re a seasoned chef or just starting out, I’m sure you’ll find delight in every bite.
Join me as we explore flavors, traditions, and the joy of cooking together. I can’t wait to share my passion for food with you!
Join us in crafting something truly delicious, straight From Our Kitchen to Yours!
My strength is my Family!
My family has been my greatest source of inspiration, the reason I took the leap into blogging.
My husband has always been my biggest cheerleader, encouraging me to share my love for cooking with the world, while my son’s curiosity and excitement about trying new recipes fuel my creativity. Together, they support me every step of the way, whether it’s testing new dishes or brainstorming ideas for my blog. Their belief in me has made this journey possible, and their constant love and support are the driving forces behind Nita’s Platter.
We’re rooted in India, where my love for cooking began, but our culinary journey didn’t stop there. Together, we’ve ventured into the kitchens of three countries – India, New Zealand, and now Canada – each experience adding layers of flavor and richness to my cooking.
My son has always been passionate about gaming, immersing himself in virtual worlds and challenges.
However, recently, he’s been developing a surprising interest in cooking, especially baking. From experimenting with different cake recipes to mastering the art of making cookies, he’s found joy in creating something delicious with his own hands.
It’s been such a delight to see him explore this new hobby, combining his love for precision and creativity in the kitchen.
I’m excited to see where this newfound passion takes him, and I’m proud to have him by my side as we both dive into the world of cooking together.
Apart from creating a delicious mess in my kitchen, my family and I also love embarking on various adventurous tours. Whether it’s hiking through scenic landscapes, exploring new cultures, or indulging in the flavors of different regions, we thrive on discovering the world together.
These trips inspire my cooking, as I bring back new ideas and ingredients to experiment with, blending them into my own recipes.
Our adventures are all about making memories, experiencing the beauty of nature, and finding joy in the simple things—just like cooking!
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little more about me, my family, and my journey with food.
