Manali Singh is the author, recipe developer and photographer behind the Cook With Manali food blog, where she shares easy vegetarian meals. Her debut cookbook, Indian Vegetarian Cooking With Your Instant Pot®, was released in the fall of 2018.
Born and raised in India, Manali Singh started her food blog in 2013 when she moved to the US on a visa that didn’t allow her to work. But what started as a way to kill time, quickly became a full-time gig. Her work has been featured on BuzzFeed, MSN, Yahoo and other influential websites.
Manali lives with her husband in beautiful Seattle. She enjoys watching Bollywood movies in her free time.
