The Faces Behind Our Kitchen
Meet the mother-daughter duo, Usha and Meenakkshi, the team behind your favourite Marwadi treats. Our kitchen was born from family recipes, pure ghee, and a heartfelt mission to share comfort through food.
This is our story. In this video, we, the mother-daughter duo, share how Happy Grandmaa Kitchen started during Covid. Mom, Usha Dadisaa, explains in her own words how cooking for others brought her joy and how this passion continues to grow.
Here is the warm, smiling face behind every recipe, our Dadisaa. When you're looking for a comforting snack, just remember her advice: "Dadisaa se pucho."
This is Dadisaa in her element, surrounded by the delicious Marwadi snacks she has perfected over the years. She’s just like your dadi, always ready to offer you a plate full of love.
Our motto is "Har Ghadi, Nashto Ghadi," but with an important addition: it must be Grandmaa-approved. This photo of Dadisaa is a reminder that every snack passes her test for quality and taste.
Happy Grandmaa Kitchen is more than just the two of us. This is a picture of our wonderful team, the family that helps us bring Dadisaa's recipes to your home. We wish you a Happy Diwali from all of us.

About Our Story: Meet Dadisaa & The Team
This kitchen isn't an industrial operation. When you receive a pack of nimki or mathri, you are eating snacks that Dadisaa has personally tasted and approved. We started this journey in our home kitchen during the pandemic, and we still stick to that same 'home-cooked' discipline, using pure ghee and absolutely no palm oil in every single batch we hand-knead.
Our Story: From Covid Days to Your Kitchen
It all started with a simple thought from Mom, Usha Jalan, who we all call Dadisaa. During the difficult days of Covid, she found peace and joy in cooking for others. She would say, 'Ye prerna mane Covid se mili thi' (This inspiration came from Covid), and that joy became the foundation of our work. We started small, sharing her traditional Marwadi recipes with neighbours, and it just grew from there.
Why 'Dadisaa' is the Real Boss
Meenakkshi here—I might handle the digital side and the logistics, but my mother is the heart of every recipe. We operate on a 'no-shortcut' policy. If a snack doesn't meet the taste or quality standards of our own family table, it doesn't leave our kitchen. We take pride in the irregularities of our snacks; that is how you know they are hand-cut and hand-shaped, not stamped out by a machine.
Our Quality Promise
- Pure Ghee Only: We use 100% Desi Ghee for frying and kneading.
- Zero Preservatives: You won't find anything in our jars that you wouldn't find in a regular home pantry.
- Fresh, Always: Whether it's our crispy Karela Nimki, flaky Swaali, or our deep-fried Aloo-Matar Samosas, everything is made fresh to order. We don't believe in long shelf-life chemicals, so your food arrives as fresh as it would if it came straight off our stove.
We are a team that believes in 'Har Ghadi, Nashto Ghadi' (Every moment is a snack moment). Thank you for welcoming Dadisaa into your homes and making her recipes a part of your celebrations.
