Ganga -Gomti is the title of my blog because my cooking is the reflection of the cuisine of eastern Uttar-Pradesh.My mom's journey from Ballia to Lucknow is reflected in her cooking and Ballia is a small city situated on the banks of holy river Ganga while Lucknow is the capital city of U.P. situated on the banks of river Gomti.Now I live in Chicago which is on the banks of mighty Lake Michigan,still the influence of Ganga-Gomti cuisine is predominant in my cooking even today!
