News: Mamtas Kitchen is 20 years old! - 7th March, 2021

Mamta's Kitchen is now 20 years old! One of the oldest recipe websites on the web, it's essentially a family cookbook online.

The bulk of the recipes come from Mamta herself, a retired doctor, mother and grandmother who loves sharing food with family and friends. The rest are from Mamta's extensive family, friends and readers. The site is administrated and supported by daughter Kavita and son-in-law Pete.

Over the years, we've had many many lovely messages from readers all around the world about their successes with Mamta's Kitchen recipes, and many have come to Mamta for her home cook advice. The site has been featured in the mainstream media, and one of mum's core recipes was on the menu at nationwide restaurant chain Leon for an entire autumn and winter season. Mamta also ran a number of charity fundraiser classes out of her home.

If you've ever used a recipe from the site, please leave a note in the forum for Mamta and your best wishes for the site's anniversary. (see forum)

Last but not the least, I must mention that I was started in this path by my late elder brother Ashok bhayyaji, who helped me to draft the early recipes and started the first version of mamtaskitchen.
