About author

Welcome! My name is Elena Kamenskykh (hence the name of the site - kamelena.com). Some of my favorite things are developing and cooking recipes, as well as photographing the cooking process and the resulting result. All the recipes you see here are prepared and tested by me personally. At the moment, the site already has more than 750 recipes with detailed step-by-step photographs; the latest statistics can be seen on the main page of the site.

I come up with some recipes myself, others I find in cookbooks or on the Internet, and I almost always change and adapt the recipes to my taste. I can't cook exactly according to a recipe, I need creativity!

My family is the main taster of my dishes. This is my husband Alexey, who is also responsible for the technical condition of the site, for which many thanks to him! We have a daughter, Agatha, who is a teenager, and a little son, Hector.

My recipes use only simple products available in a regular store. You will not find here any lemongrass, galangal, fish sauce and other ingredients that can only be found in specialized online stores. My recipes are available to everyone!

I look forward to any feedback you may have on the recipes posted on the site (this can be done by writing a comment at the end of any recipe). Always glad to see you on the website kamelena.com!
