Welcome to No Takeaway Tonight.

Hello! My name is Jessica and I'm a self-taught home cook based in Sydney. I developed a passion for cooking nearly 25 years ago when I moved from my home city Mumbai, India to Australia and started cooking for my young family. For me, as it is probably for a lot of you out there, it was difficult to balance my busy work schedule with cooking fresh dinners for my family. I became passionate about developing recipes that could be pulled together in half an hour or so after work to feed my hungry children and husband. My recipes combine knowledge passed down from my talented mother and my own culinary pursuits to create quick and healthy meals packed with flavour. Now, as a mother of two young adult kids, I understand that daily cooking can be a daunting and time-consuming part of adulthood! That's why I'm dedicated to developing and sharing quick, easy and well-balanced meals for young adults who have recently moved away from home and are keen to wean themselves off take away meals.
