About Me

Welcome to DadinKitchen.com – a Blog that help working mom and dad to prepare simple, fast yet delicious food on the dining table.

My name is Raja and I am the man behind the Dad in Kitchen Blog. I’m a working dad who loves to cook simple yet delicious food for my own family. Like most of the working parents (it’s you!), we don’t have much time to cook complicated recipes during our working days. So, fast and simple recipes will absolutely help us a lot right?

To be honest, I never receive any formal education on culinary area. In fact, I’m a Building Science graduate who works in an Oil and Gas company. Having said that, I’ve been helping a lot in my home kitchen since I was a kid. My first proper dish that I cook on my own was fried beef in turmeric (Daging masak kunyit) which was prepared during my university year.

My university year was a turning point in my ‘cooking life’ as I have to cook my own food to live. Seriously! I remember that I have to work in a few kitchens as a kitchenhand in the heart of Wellington City just to earn some pocket money. Therefore, I think I could say that I also completed my Basic Cooking 101 course when I graduated from the Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand.

Now I’m married to my beautiful wife and still cooking for my family. My passion in cooking never fades away. My cooking style has also changed a lot over these years. Now I’m more into simple, fast, healthy yet delicious foods.

As a result, Dad in Kitchen was born to share the simple recipe for you to try and evaluate yourself. It might be delicious to me but I do appreciate if you could comments and help to improve the quality of the recipes.

As I will cook almost everyday, this blog will be updated regularly. So, the best way to use it will be to follow it over time. The best way to do this will be to use one of our subscription options which can be found on the sidebar under ‘Subscribe to Dad in Kitchen’.

I hope you enjoy Dad in Kitchen.
