About me
Hi, I’m Monju!
East London
I am a writer of children's poems and a clinical psychologist working with children all my life. I have been interested in cooking all my life and am Bengali by birth but have lived in England for 50 years. What I enjoy most is the simplicity of bengali food and how easy it is to pass down to anyone who wants to watch and learn. The tasty and nutritious elements can be adapated for all flavours and diets and most recently I am interested in cooking for diabetic people, as I have recently been diagnosed with diabetes. I would love to share my poetry and stories with you and help you learn how to make any form of curry, dahl, bhaji, bhorta and chutneys.
