Niru Gupta, an Economics graduate from Bombay University, tapped her latent culinary skills only after she moved to Delhi, following her marriage. A young bride, having a ‘foodie’ husband and a load of confusing cookbooks proved to be a combination to encourage her to write simple and easy to understand recipes. She authored 6 successful cookery books – Cook, My Dar, Everyday Indian, No Onion-No Garlic, Vrat Ka Khaana, The Microwave Indian Cookbook and Cooking the UP Way. One thing led to another and before she knew it, she was the hostess for the popular culinary show Khaana Khazana on Zee T.V. She contributed regularly to cookery columns in Femina, Savvy, Upper Crust and other popular magazines, as well as conducted cookery classes and offered selective catering. Now she writes a regular column for Sakhi, is on the panel on NDTV.com, writing recipes and answering recipe related queries, and she appears on Meri Saheli on Star Plus.
