Welcome To My Blog

Hi, I’m Priyanka Govender-Chanderdeo ! I’m so thrilled you’ve stopped by my blog, and I hope you find exactly what you’re looking for. I promise, every moment spent here will be worth it.

I am from the beautiful city of Durban on the east coast of South Africa, and my love affair with cooking began when I was just nine years old.

Cooking has been a passion I embraced willingly, and my love for it has only grown since.

I started a small Instagram account in December 2021, excited to share my food journey through my phone camera. I never imagined it would lead to a blog! As my account began gaining traction in January 2023, I started sharing recipe videos. This inspired me to create this blog, a home for all my recipes and a way to document my journey.

Here, you’ll find a mix of traditional South African recipes, fusion dishes, vegetarian meals, Durban-style curries, and the celebratory recipes I grew up with. You’ll also find new recipes inspired by my travels.

Every single recipe is created with precision, I always have a pen and notepad nearby to capture the perfect ingredients and quantities.

I hope my blog offers you some recipe gems that inspire you to explore new flavours in your kitchen and elevate your cooking game!

From breakfast and brunch to lunch and dinner, as well as wine farms and local farmers' markets, this list is certainly worth checking out!
