Our Kitchen Story: Authentic Rajasthani & Sheherwali Comfort
We are a mother-daughter team sharing our family's legacy. Everything we cook is a tribute to our grandmothers, made fresh, just for you.
We believe there's a special feeling that comes with food cooked just for you. Here, I share why the comfort of 'Maa ke haath ka khana' is the heart of everything we do at Desi Classics.
In this short clip, I answer a few questions about how Desi Classics started from a midnight conversation with my mom and which dish is my personal favourite.
Here is the heart and soul of our kitchen, my mom. She has a question for all of you about your favourite dish that she makes. We love hearing from you!
This image captures our core values. We are a mother-daughter venture committed to slow recipes, old family flavours, and freshly cooked food, serving you from our home with pride.
Our journey is a tribute to the incredible women in our family. This video explains our roots in Rajasthani and Sheherwali cuisine and our mission to share these nostalgic cultural celebrations with you.
About this collection
Everything we make is on a pre-order basis because we believe in slow cooking, not fast trends. We start prepping at 3 AM to ensure that your meal—whether it is our signature Dal Baati or a comforting North Indian thali—is cooked fresh from scratch, exactly the way you would expect at home.
Desi Classics is not a brand, it is our home kitchen. Our journey started during a midnight conversation, when my mom and I decided we did not want our family’s secret recipes to get lost in time. We wanted to preserve the flavors of our Nani and Dadi, bridging the gap between traditional Rajasthani roots and delicate Sheherwali cuisine.
We do not use shortcuts. There is no freezing, no preservatives, and certainly no large-batch reheating. When you eat with us, you are eating what we eat. We focus on traditional techniques, like slow-simmering our Panchmel Dal for hours to get the right consistency or baking baatis until they are perfectly crusty.
Whether you are a Mumbaikar missing the taste of home, a corporate team looking for an authentic lunch, or a family wanting to try regional recipes without the restaurant grease, we are here to cook for you. Because we cook in small, fresh batches, we kindly ask for a 2-day pre-order. This ensures we can source the best ingredients and give your meal the time and love it deserves.

Hi, I am the daughter in this duo, and my mom is the heart of our kitchen. We started this to keep our grandmother's recipes alive, cooking exactly the way we do at home—slowly, honestly, and with love.
