My pen name is CreativeSue. I’m a creative spirit drawn to travel, culture, art, and the language of food. Colors and flavors speak to me deeply, and I love creating fusions. Growing up in India with Konkan coastal roots and now living in Northern California, I’ve begun adapting those familiar dishes using fresh, seasonal local ingredients. My family and friends always appreciate my creative recipes while keeping the traditional flavors. My goals for this site The Curry Cellar are as follows.

1. Approachable: Make Indian cooking approachable to the curious cook who is interested in exploring global cuisines.
2. Versatile: Create menus that everyone can enjoy, making meal planning easier with versatile sauces for veg and non-veg dishes.
3. Healthy: While my recipes may not strictly follow diets such as Whole30, Paleo, Keto, and Vegan, but they are inspired by them
4. Wine Pairing: Where possible, I will share wine pairing curated by my husband who is a certified wine enthusiast by WSET (Wine & Spirit Education Trust)

I’m excited to share my passion for cooking with you. May it inspire and bring delicious meals to your table. Enjoy!
