Hello everyone and  welcome to my blog -- "Khaadanti"

I am foodie and  passionate about cooking, who likes to try preparing varities of veg cuisines from around the world. Whenever I hear somebody saying that "There are only few varieties in vegetarian food", I feel very bad. I am a pure vegetarian foodie and still I tested numerous delicious vegetarian dishes in the region I lived and toured. So, reason for me to write my blog "Khaadanti" is to end the search of dishes for all vegetarian foodies out there !

The word "Khaadanti", a Sanskrit derivative Marathi word, meaning eating passionately. Probably conveys the difference between eating and Dining.

Thank you for visit, keep following, suggestions and critics are welcome.
