This is the story of how I brought my Amma's recipes, from Wayanad spices to fermented appam batter, straight from my kitchen to your table. ## Photos and videos - ![Welcome to Travancore Tasties.

My mother sun-dries and powders our chillies and coriander for the spice blends, and the appam batter is naturally fermented from scratch—no shortcuts, just the slow, deliberate process I watched my Amma perfect years ago. Cooking is more than following a recipe; it is about instinct and state of mind. When I started Travancore Tasties in 2015, my only goal was to share the food I grew up eating. For a Malayalee, dishes like Beef Ullarthu are not just food, they are emotions. That is why I spend the time to babysit the appam batter and source my spices directly from Wayanad. My food represents the mixed Syrian Christian table I grew up with. While my heart is in traditional Kerala dishes, I also make the continental comforts that were always present at our Christmas gatherings, like Shepherd’s Pie and orange flan. This approach—balancing strict tradition with the reality of how we actually ate at home—defines every tray I send out. Whether you are ordering individual portions for a quiet night in Bengaluru or large catering trays for a party of 50, you are getting the same quality. Everything is prepared fresh in my kitchen without commercial shortcuts. I run this based on trust and flavour, not mass production. If you have been searching for that specific taste of home, this is where you will find it. ## About Travancore Tasties I'm Tresa, and Travancore Tasties is my way of sharing the food I grew up loving. My cooking is built on instinct and family recipes passed down by the fierce women in my family. I am just here to make sure you get a proper taste of home, whether it is for a quiet dinner or a big celebration.
