Hi there! I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m Maya Noor, the home cook and storyteller behind mykitchendiary.com — a cozy little corner of the internet where I share the kind of food that warms the soul and brings people together.

I may not be a professional chef, but I’ve always believed that the best recipes come from real kitchens — with real mess, real stories, and real love.

This blog started as a simple idea:

✏️ “What if I kept a digital diary of everything I cook, learn, and discover in my kitchen?”

And just like that, My Kitchen Diary was born.

What You’ll Find Here

• Simple, beginner-friendly recipes anyone can try
• Comfort food from all corners of the world
• Family-inspired meals & childhood flavors
• A few honest flops, a few surprises, and lots of flavor

Everything here is cooked with everyday ingredients — no fancy tools, no stress. Just honest food, made with heart.

Who This Blog Is For

Whether you’re a student, a beginner cook, a tired parent, or just someone looking for “one good recipe this week” — this space is for you.

If you love the smell of warm spices, easy one-pot meals, and discovering food with feeling — you’re in the right place.

Why I Share

Cooking changed the way I look at life — it’s peaceful, expressive, and full of connection.
And I want you to feel the same joy in your own kitchen.

So I’m here to share everything — the wins, the flops, the secret tips, and those “Wait, that actually worked?!” moments.
