Talent comes in all forms, and when you find your passion, you reach great heights. This little girl from Kerala created a record for preparing 33 meals in under an hour, and we cannot help but drop our jaws! Most of us are fully grown adults, and we are still learning how to prepare our meals to survive. We can probably make some dal, rice, and perhaps a chicken gravy and feel great about ourselves. But this little girl can dish out more than 30 delicious food items in under 60 minutes and has created new records in more than one record book.
Saanvi M Prajit was recognized by the Asia Book of Records and the India Book of Records for her unbeatable time of preparing 33 dishes in less than one hour. She is from Ernakulam, Kerala, and is the daughter of the Wing Commander of Indian Air Force, Prajit Babu, and star chef and reality cooking show finalist, Manjma. Saanvi said that her mother has been an inspiration to her, and she picked up cooking as a passion because of her mother’s talent.

The talented little girl secured a place in the book of records for the maximum number of dishes prepared by a kid. Out of the 33 dishes she prepared, some of the scrumptious food items included mushroom tikka, uttapam, egg bull’s eye, chicken roast, pancake, appam, corn fritters, fried rice, sandwich, waffles, idli, paneer tikka, and papdi chaat. Talk about talent!
The young girl had two gazetted officers witnessing her cooking while the authorities from the Asia Book of Records watched her through a virtual screen. The event was organized at her residence in Visakhapatnam, where she impressed everyone and broke the record by cooking 33 dishes in less than 60 minutes.

Saanvi’s mother, Manjma, is a reality cookery show finalist and a star chef. So, it’s safe to say that it’s in her blood, and she did one up! Manjma told a popular news portal that Saanvi has always been fascinated by cooking, even when she was a little kid. She watched her grandparents and mother cook and expressed her interest in cooking as a child. Her mother and grandparents encouraged her when she showed her interest in cooking and gave her a boost.

You are probably wondering how she prepared 33 dishes in less than an hour at the age of 10, but while you are filled with wonder and amazement, Saanvi has been a part of cookery shows even as a child. She received recognition for her skills in culinary arts and has a fan following at this tender age. Saanvi also has her own YouTube channel where she puts up videos of her trying out simple and tasty recipes.
Her mother told a news portal that Saanvi began cooking at the age of 6. She prepared an ada payasam, which became a hit. However, she couldn’t go to the next level on the show because she did not know how to cook on a stove at the time. She was just 6-years-old! Apart from this exceptional skill, Saanvi is a trained Bharatnatyam dancer and enjoys horse riding. We wonder, what can this talented young girl not do!
Saanvi has made India proud with this admirable talent. Cooking delicious food is a skill that is much appreciated, and we are sure that this little culinary genius will go places! We cannot help but think about how we struggled to make a packet of Maggi at her age only to end up asking our mothers, fathers, or older siblings to make it for us. We applaud her for her exemplary talent and wish her the best for her future!
