Not medical or diet advice

Nothing on this site is medical, health or nutrition advice. It does not replace advice from a doctor or a qualified dietitian (food and diet expert). If you have a health condition, are pregnant, or follow a special diet, please ask a professional before changing what you eat.

Nutrition information

Ingredient nutrition figures are shown per 100 g of the raw ingredient. They come from public sources such as USDA FoodData Central and are approximate (close, but not exact). Real values change with the variety, how fresh the food is and how you cook it. Some ingredients do not have figures yet. Please do not use these numbers to plan a medical diet.

Allergies and diet labels

  • We show common allergens (for example milk, nuts or gluten) where we know them. This list may not be complete, so always check each ingredient yourself.
  • Vegan, Vegetarian and Non-Vegetarian labels are based on the ingredients in the recipe. Some everyday items can surprise you. For example, many types of hing (asafoetida) are mixed with wheat flour, so they contain gluten.
  • If you have a serious allergy, take extra care with shared pans and utensils.

Desi nuskhe (traditional home remedies)

Our Desi Nuskhe section shares traditional home recipes as part of India's food culture. They are shared as tradition, not as treatment. They are not meant to diagnose (identify), treat, cure or prevent any illness. See a doctor for any health problem.

Food safety

  • Cook chicken until it is steaming hot all the way through (74 °C / 165 °F inside), with no pink juices.
  • Cook meat, fish and eggs fully before eating.
  • Keep leftovers covered in the fridge and reheat them well.

Amounts and results

Some amounts are our estimate (best guess) when the original cook did not state them. Cooking times depend on your stove, pan and ingredients, so taste and check as you go. Results can differ from the photos.

Images

Some images on this site are illustrations (artwork, not photos), and some are made with AI tools. They show the idea of a dish or ingredient and may not look exactly like what you cook.
