In 2007, much before the world had discovered how to make reels and share kitchen tips and cooking tricks on video, entrepreneur and food activist Archana Doshi had set up a webpage - Archana's Kitchen - that provided food enthusiasts with easy-to-follow recipes for everyday cooking.

Archana's Kitchen grew to be among India's leading recipe and food platforms.

Cut to today, it has over 10 million (and growing) users across the website, social media, YouTube and mobile app.

Archana's is a household name. Everyone from those who love to cook and try something innovative to those who are stepping into the kitchen for the first time - refers to her recipes. Her aim has always been, and remains, teaching people the basics of cooking while learning more about the nutritional value of simple Indian meals.

Featured as a Google Entrepreneur for her work in the digital space, Archana was the inspiration for the first Google Chrome Ad in 2011. To further her cause, she wrote her first book, 30 Meal Plans: Easy Vegetarian Indian Recipes For Good Health in 2022 and has recently published Tasty Tiffin: 40+ Delicious And Healthy Lunch Plans For Kids (both HarperCollins Publishers India).
