VahRehVah...Inspiring others to cook!!

http://www.vahrehvah.com/

As the popular saying goes - A journey to a man's heart is through his stomach.....but I'd like to reword as - A journey to anyone's heart is through the stomach!!

There are very few things more pleasurable than good food. After all, we work, slog, struggle and at the end of the day, all of it boils down to have good food!

Now there are countless number of websites online about food and cooking. With YouTube becoming a popular tool to reach out to millions of people around the world, more and more people keep posting recipes and cooking tips on how to make many mouth-watering dishes, which you thought you could only get to taste them in some posh hotels!! You probably can find a video recipe for any food in the world, showing you a step-by-step procedure on how to make them...

So when there are soo many of them, what's soo special about VahRehVah.com...Well VahRehVah is all about inspiring others to cook :))

Truly, it lives up to its punch line..By just looking at the man responsible for VahRehVah (Sanjay Thumma) cook, and make delightful gestures on how tasty the food will turn out is enough for you to put your cooking hat (apron) on!!

His recipes range from mouth watering Indian dishes to Italian, Chinese and even the very famous Southern Fried chicken..

And the best part of all these cooking videos is that he makes it very simple. You need not have special equipment or difficult-to-find ingredients to cook these dishes. You can manage with what's available around you and pick up most of the ingredients required from your local grocery store.

And do the dishes turn up as tasty as Sanjay's gestures….??The answer is a BIG YESS!!!

All his recipes are very easy to cook and at the end they taste like if they are cooked by Pros!!

So, Kudos to Mr. Thumma for introducing these simple but extremely tasty recipes and maintaining a great website http://www.vahrehvah.com/

[All of this for Free, though you can make a (truly deserving) donation by hitting the thank you button of his homepage]

I feel all you guys, especially all NRI's should check his recipes and try them.

Also, all the English folks who feel that the pre-cooked 'n' packed Chicken Tikka Masala from local superstore is great..then just wait till you see the Videos and try it out...You will be amazed by the end result!!

Some of my favs from Sanjay's recipes:

Curry/Egg Puff, Chicken 65, Mysore Bhajji, Chicken Drum-sticks, Chinese Chicken, Chilly Paneer...

,Nankhatai nan katai

Nankhatai are easy-to-make semolina “cookies” from the Indian tradition

Dahipuri, or Dahi puri

Dahipuri, or Dahi puri

The round, hard, puffy puri shell is first broken on top and partially filled with the main stuffing of mashed potatoes or chickpeas. A little haldi powder and/or chilli powder may be added for taste, as well as a pinch of salt. Sweet tamarind chutney and spicy green chutney are poured into the shell on top of the stuffing. Finally, sweetened beaten yoghurt is generously poured over the shell, and the finished product is garnished with sprinklings of crushed sev, moong dal and finely chopped coriander leaves.
Dahi puri typically comes 5 or 6 dahi puris per plate. Unlike pani puri, dahi puri is not served one morsel at a time, but all at once. Each dahi puri is intended to be eaten whole, like the pani puri, so that the spectrum of flavors and textures within may hit the mouth together for full effect

VahrehVah.com mission is accomplished

Namaskaram Sanjay Garu,


First of all, I'm a great lover of delicious food. I like more of Indian style especially Andhra and Hyderabadi style food. After I have been to US I also started liking Mexican style food. But, I was always thinking, honestly to say dreaming about me cooking and enjoying it. Even I tried once but that has become a big mess. Ever since then I did not get chance to spend more in a kitchen.

Initially when I was on shot trips to US, I was bit worried about the food as I had earlier suffered eating Pizzas, salads or frozen food everyday.When I moved to Chicago, I started cooking my self but something like eat to live. Though I was reading many web sites on recipes and cooking instructions, that did not really push me relinquish the my old worries.

That one day, when one of my friend suggested the site www.vahrevah.com, I had the same mind set as earlier, but gradually I was developing interest in trying various recipes. But, when I start watching your videos (honestly speaking) I got "inspired" and started developing passion towards cooking. Today, I spend my weekends and holidays cooking and trying various stuff withing my reach. It brought flavour to my life in US. Every now and then, when i chat with my friends, I keep bringing about asking for new receipies.

I like your presentation (trust me, it adds up to the reason to be Inspired), your cooking tips for cooking beginners and way content on the site is organized and inviting others to be part of mission at ease.

Started with Upmas to Rices and curries to beverages, today I am completely enjoying cooking today. When my mom came to know that I am cooking here and enjoying it she started also inspired and suggesting the best way to cook. She is a great cook when there is a family gathering her Dosakai Sambar with Sweet onions along with a Spicy chicken curry and Chicken pulao are the best. In fact, that will be the motivating factor to form a gathering.

I greatly appreciate your passion to cooking and enjoying to the extent what you believe upon. VahreVah.com mission is accomplished. Wish that VahreVah.com will continue on the mission to keep inspiring generations to come.

Though, I am not done with my words to express my gratitude, I will limit this here.

I wish you all the best in your mission and journey of life.
