- Chai, Maggie and Boiled Eggs.
For a long time only these 3 items have been on my 'Things I Can Cook' list. And that's because I used to think of cooking as a waste of my time. Because why cook when you can study, work, party, Netflix and Chill.
But after completing my Fitness Classes and Nutrition Certifications, I realised how stupid I was. I learnt that the reason why cooking is important is because a Home Cooked Meal, filled with fresh ingredients takes care of our digestive system. The digestive system takes care of our health. And health makes us active, we become productive. And that productivity leads to a great career, good friends and a lot of money! And that makes us the Super-Hero of our lives!
Therefore, to be a Super-Hero, we need to learn how to cook! Hence, proved! :)
But for 30 years, cooking for me has been a nightmare, a mystery I couldn't solve; because nobody taught me what is the Step 1.
So if you have also been struggling with cooking like I did, then in this video you will find the exact steps to get started; from setting up your Kitchen to making some quick breakfast and finally graduating to making those complicated recipes on UA-cam!
I really hope you fall in love with cooking, just like I did.

Cooking scares me because I tend to obssess over the details and there seems to be so much to remember. You made it simple. Thank you so much! Really value the content on this channel.
Same. I obsess over learning from the basics of everything. Starting from the basic ayurvedic theory of indian food and 6 ras. But honestly that's a very terrible way of learning something. Learning by cooking recipies is much better while picking up the theory part of things on the way.
Exactlyyyyy to the point
Only remember to add salt all else will work out
This was the first cooking video I watched and keep coming back at it as I'm transitioning from student phase to working phase. Very easy to follow and highly helpful.
Your channel is so versatile. It's like an encyclopedia with every topic I need to make my life easy and stay motivated. Love you and yes I am your new subscriber and new fan . 😊😊😊😊and I'm binge watching all your videos from yesterday.
:) Welcome to the family!
True true
Wow such a नपा तुला comment
Italian American here. I have been cooking Indian dishes for a long time, but find it hard to keep the necessary items stocked for simple recipes. Thank you so much for this guide and your simple list. 😀
Italians American man are you a mafia I really like American mob films
@@mothernaturesson2640 hahaha. No, I have no connections to the mob, however, I went to high school in the same town that The Sopranos were filmed in while it was being filmed. One day, my town diner was closed because they filmed a scene there. Sometimes there’d be roadblocks at random places because the film crew were out. It was cool because the next year you’d be watching something filmed from the same area and remember the day they filmed it.
@@mothernaturesson2640...would be nice if you use a translator instead of trying to speak English by yourself...
@@dinosaur9406Haha actually I was drunk at the time I wrote that comment that's why the grammar is incorrect
@@dinosaur9406 chi chi chi chi 😖 kitna ganda paneer banaya😣🤢
I am a dentist aged 73years old. Since lock down, I started helping my wife and try to learn cooking. From then on I was searching for BASIC INDIAN COOKING for long time I couldn't found one. I found yours and very much happy and thank you for the channel. As soon as started helping my wife I was trying to write about Indian cooking and I find yours fit in with my writings I seek your permission use your stuff in my writings. Thank you in anticipation. With warm & hearty regards. Dr.A.Gopianandan, B.D.S.,
Nobody asked 🗿

I am a boy. Just started earning and moved out of my hometown. And only thing I know is to Cook maggie.
Now I need to learn basic cooking to survive
heyo how's it going? :) how many new recipes did u learn?
You said the same reasons why l didn't want to cook. And now l realised it....cooking has nothing to do with gender. It is an important thing one should know in their life, whether it is girl or boy.
@@aiswaryathilakan2588 yes you are right
So what, if you are a boy this is just a stereotype of society, even i am a girl but i don't know how to cook. Just learn how to cook perfectly without mentioning gender.
@@aiswaryathilakan2588 chi chi chi shii 😖💩 kitna ganda paneer banaya 🤢😣
Urban fight is a mixture of all typ of channels "health+motivation+comedy+zumba+carer motivation and now how to cook"... good to go mam..ds makes u diff from any othr youtuber..lots of love😍
Thank you Ricky! :)
@@TheUrbanFight yeah !
Hi. Thank you so much. This is what I wanted to explain my daughter. She was not listening to me. I just forwarded her the link and it worked. Thank u dear.
lol, how sweet. Thanks.
Omg u mentioned nisha mam.. I absolutely love her as well. She's the one I watch before I make anything and it turns out superb😊
Can you post her video link
@@MuhammedFazilM Search Nisha Madhulika on UA-cam search bar. You will find her channel.🙂
Superb video! I’m not new to cooking, but as an American (non-Desi) home cook, I am new to Indian cuisine. Now that you’ve taught me the staples, I can retool my kitchen to cook the best cuisine in the world. Thank you! Cheers to your continued success.
Wish I had this video two years back when I just got married.
This video is going to be really useful for so many. Thanks for uploading
I'm happy you found it useful, Padma! :)
I am binging cooking videos right now and I can't wait to get back into cooking! And I very much enjoy Indian cuisine, so this will come in handy! Love from Germany!
Love how you break things down in the simplest way ❤️
Thanks Sudeshna! :) Which part did you like the best?
I'm happy it helped!
@@TheUrbanFight 😊
Forget about the cooking... your way of explaining just make me so happy and refresh that I subscribed only for this..
OMG. you were reading my mind and literally repeating my thoughts in your introduction. I too refused to learn out of rebellion and now I realise I need it for my own survival 😮 Thanks for this video.
00:50 this is where you told both boys & girls should cook that's 100% correct bcoz only if both know how to cook then it's so easy to understand each other
Made a big decision to learn cooking!thanks for ur video ! Gonna start right away ! Due to ur video I got to know about the importance of home made food & cooking! Yasss gonna 1st observe what my mama is doing & then gonna try & finallly gonna make my own !!! Wish me luck guys! Do more videos on easy cooking
Hi.. was looking to learn cooking @not so young age of 50, stumbled on your video. Found it useful and interesting.. but need to point out that THE MOST COMPICATED AND UNFAMILIAR ACTIVITY FOR A BEGINER IN COOKING is learning to cut vegetables, which was not touched upon. Similarly the utensils required for cooking is also an important aspect while setting up /preparing to cook.
Just heard the intro and clicked the like button. I'm moving out in less than 3 weeks and I desperately needed this
Hi urban fight, by following your tips I lost 9kg in 50 days. Thanks a lot. But have to loose more to stay fit. I’m loosing my weight without starving and eating my favorite dishes. Love you urban fight
The first 1 minute was enough to get me hooked. The content and the voice, the channel looks worthy
Thanks for such simple and effective beginning tips.
This lady is a full package
She is so amazing n informative talented luv her
What she said in beginning abt cooking n mostly many girls mentality tht ik to cook noodle eggs tea thats really so me, but we have to face reality tht we know to cook man, my whole life i have been like this only not interested ever to go in kitchen never even make tea or egg? Bt sumthing bought me to a change that i have to learn cooking now m 23 alrdy
Mam your confidence always force me to open your video.
So I am so addicted to watch your videos. Basically I am also IT student but I have watched all your finance videos
as it is very necessary to maintain our expense and savings.
By the way my question is how could I be so confident like you.
I've learned a lot of cooking from Nisha ma'am. She explains every detail and in a very simple manner.
I saw your video 5 years back, then I was 23. I only knew how to make chains and dough. Your video made me realize that cooking is a basic survival skill😅 I started then with little steps and with the help of UA-cam and people around me I've become a good cook. I suddenly remembered how I actually started it and checked for this old video. Thank you so much, you inspired me to take the first 😊
:) Thank you for going through the trouble of finding the video and letting me know.
Can't thank u enough for this video.... Gonna be of great help for people who r staying away from home... 🙂
Wow the intro to this is gold!!
❤Thanks a ton for sharing such amazing video and I just love ur way of explaining, it's straight forward no rubbish n stupid starving diets😘 I have started Ur Indian diet and 15 mins home workout for beginner's since 2 weeks now can't say about weight loss but

I learnt cooking in hostel and the first time I cooked it was rice and after I opened the cooker surprisingly there was no rice it turned to " halwa "😂😂
No efforts of chewing and it's today that I know how to cook every typical to Shahi dish..

Very nice information
You are a fantastic orator mam.
Lots of love for you and appreciation for your talent.

you said : "It is mission impossible to find a good cook who is clean and hygienic." and then you mentioned #1 is being organised and i was like "oh man, haha..i guess im a good cook then huh?" better try to find a way to be better organized in my kitchen now
You are amazing! I watch so many Far Eastern and Western cooking videos but you are the first Indian who has the presentation style that I love! The microphone quality and the fact the music is only in the background and not drowning you out!
Do you have a vegetable preparation video? Like, how you prepare and clean bhindi, green onions/leaves, spinsch, and all those other veggies that often get soil or dirt in them? All the cooks chop them as though they've just pulled them straight out of the packet, e.g. spring onions, but I always separate the white from the green and have to slice the green part to wash out the soil! Please and thank you, this is what always puts me off using anything fresh and I just end up making paneer and potato curry!!! :) ♡
Thanks akka this information helps me a lot
Your way of speaking is 😘
I'm man and now I'm also interested in cooking 😀
Looking for proposals , guess cooking is a deal breaker for most men ..I'm laughing because you made my life easy
Hi first of all uso priety the way u talk i like it im staying in Fiji island i got two boys im always cooking for them n im planning for them different cooking
I'm from America and got married and living in Delhi now and trying to learn how to cook Indian dishes. I can cook 'American' foods my mom taught me, but the ingredients are not easily available and my husband is not a fan of my 'plain' cooking lol. Thanks for the video and I'm happy it is in English and so easy to understand. Good job! 👍
How are you doing now with indian cooking?
@@idkwhattonamemyself9326 I've learned quite a few dishes and they seem to like my cooking if that says anything lol. I make the rotis every day to go with the sabji curries. Parathas are pretty easy to make and I enjoy them stuffed with potato for breakfast. The different types of sabji are relatively easy to make as well. My husband sometimes helps me when I'm cooking chop the vegetables or flip rotis. The first dish I was taught was how to make Indian fried rice in a pressure pot. Very simple and delicious! 😋
@@vanissaberg5824 woah I'm impressed with you and so proud of you! I'm indian but I'm learning 😂today I'll be trying to make chicken curry! Thanks for reply by the way after 2 years! Hehe.
Thank you madam for making cooking easier & simpler for us...

I am a home cook. I try and emulate various cultural recipes and all that it entails. Making my own Garam Masala is first spice is first to learn
