These are recipes I came across and got from family & friends, decided to jot down before I lose them. Some recipes may not have quantities for the ingredients specified. Have been using common sense(or experience!?! ) to decipher the amount of ingredients to be used. Feel free to add your comments and suggestions 
Bon Appetit!
Shakahari” – hindi word for vegetarian; “Saapadu” – tamil term for food. Since this cookbook is a combination of North and South Indian cuisine…thought the name made sense
Edited to add the following:
Just added a blog – a type of glossary with the ingredient names in english and other Indian languages I know (or attempt 
) I have added this to the blog roll. Still here is the link : http://ingredientsglossary.wordpress.com/
Please do help make the glossary complete.

Hi Apar,
I’m compiling a family cookbook for my cousin who is getting married. I would like to include some photos from the glossary you have created at:
http://ingredientsglossary.wordpress.com/, with acknowledgement to where the photos have come from, i.e. your site.
Would you be okay with this?
Thanks
