Hello and welcome to Cook with Ambarish!
I’m Ambarish Joglekar, a passionate home cook, recipe creator and cookbook author. For me, cooking is much more than preparing a meal—it is a way to express love, preserve memories and bring people together.
My love for cooking began with the flavours I grew up enjoying in India. Many of the recipes I share have been inspired by my family, Maharashtrian traditions and the comforting homemade food that has always held a special place in my heart. The aroma of spices roasting in a pan, fresh parathas cooking on a hot tawa and ghee melting over a warm meal are some of the simple experiences that continue to inspire me.
My Cooking Journey
Over the years, cooking has become one of my greatest passions and a wonderful creative outlet. I enjoy recreating traditional Indian recipes while also experimenting with new ingredients, techniques and flavours.
Through Cook with Ambarish, I want to make Indian cooking approachable for everyone. Whether you are cooking for your family, trying an Indian recipe for the first time or looking for inspiration for your next meal, my goal is to provide recipes that are clear, practical and easy to follow.
You will find a variety of recipes here—from comforting main courses and flavourful appetizers to refreshing drinks, traditional sweets and everyday family favourites. Whenever possible, I enjoy using ingredients such as ghee and multigrain flour to add extra flavour and a thoughtful homemade touch.
From My Kitchen to Yours
Food has a beautiful way of connecting generations. A familiar recipe can instantly bring back memories of family gatherings, festivals, childhood meals and time spent together around the dining table.
That is the feeling I hope to share through every recipe on this website.
I carefully create and present each recipe so that you can prepare it confidently in your own kitchen. I believe good food does not always need complicated ingredients or difficult techniques. With a little guidance and a genuine love for cooking, anyone can create a memorable homemade meal.
My Journey as an Author
My passion for preserving and sharing recipes inspired me to take another meaningful step in my cooking journey—writing and publishing my own cookbook.
My published book, The Ultimate Paratha Cookbook, celebrates one of India’s most versatile and beloved foods. It brings together a wide variety of paratha recipes designed to help home cooks explore new fillings, flavours and combinations while enjoying the comfort of freshly prepared homemade parathas.
Publishing this book has been a proud and deeply rewarding experience. It has encouraged me to continue documenting recipes and creating cookbooks that make cooking enjoyable and accessible.
