The Indian restaurant classics you love... elevated to an entirely new level & with the finesse of the Spice Queen.
After years of requests from students wanting to recreate their favourite Indian restaurant dishes at home, Heavenly Morsel has finally released its Indian Restaurant Favourites Masterclass.
While Heavenly Morsel is renowned for teaching authentic regional Indian cuisine, this class is a little different.
Indian restaurant food has evolved into a cuisine of its own. Many of the dishes served in restaurants today are not traditional regional recipes handed down through generations, but rather a distinct style developed specifically for restaurant service and Western palates.
Because of overwhelming demand from my guests, I've created my own, more authentic interpretation of these much-loved classics-remaining true to the bold flavours people adore, but preparing them the Heavenly Morsel way.
That means:
  • Premium organic ingredients sourced seasonally & locally
  • Freshly ground whole spices instead of packaged spice mixes or pre-made pastes.
  • No shortcuts, no oily food, no artificial flavour enhancers and no commercial premixes.
  • Traditional cooking techniques that build incredible depth and complexity.
  • A meticulous focus on every layer of flavour.
The result is restaurant-inspired food that is far more refined, vibrant and satisfying than the takeaway versions most people know.
You'll discover how exceptional ingredients and proper technique transform familiar dishes into something extraordinary - cleaner flavours, beautiful balance, and meals that leave you feeling nourished, light and completely satisfied rather than heavy.
This is gourmet Indian cooking at its finest. Most students mention these classes ruin eating out at restaurants... so enter with caution!
Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced home cook, you'll gain the confidence to recreate stunning restaurant favourites with the level of quality usually reserved for the very best kitchens.
At Heavenly Morsel, we don't simply teach recipes - we teach the craftsmanship behind truly unforgettable food by The Spice Queen.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 8 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.

  • 5/5 from Caroline Wilkie, attended Apr 2026: The class was awesome! Tanya was knowledgeable and passionate and the food was delicious! The day ran smoothly and was thoroughly enjoyable
  • 5/5 from Mark & Tanya Said, attended Feb 2026: Our teacher Tanya was fabulous, and taught us how to make our favourite dishes, and fed us while we were there.
  • 5/5 from Jenny de Bolfo, attended Nov 2024: This class was money well spent; Tanya was friendly, patient and very welcoming. We learned how to prepare and mix spices, and everyone had a hand with cooking each dish, of which there was 6! The produce was amazing and we got to take home very generous portions to enjoy. Highly recommended
  • 5/5 from Dannielle Robson, attended Jun 2022: Tania nailed the entire experience from “Hello” to “Goodbye”. We had such a wide variety of foods to cook and try and even take home. The day was spectacular and I recommend this to anyone looking to fill their day with something fun and useful. We were the only couple in the room which says a lot for the experience being one singles can attend comfortably on their own. Well done!

Welcome to Australia’s Top Spice Cooking School – Heavenly Morsel Melbourne run by Australia's Spice Queen & Event Presenter Tanya Carneiro.
A luxury, unforgettable cooking class experience which brings to light, the complex & highly sophisticated cuisine of Regional Indian Cuisine.
With over 300 signature, authentic dishes you will learn the art of Indian cuisine and cooking with spices.
Heavenly Morsel procures only premium organic produce, wild caught seafood, organic meats and the country’s finest ingredients – at no extra cost to you.
It takes near a lifetime, to master the intricate art of cooking with Indian spices. Every seed, spice & grain has its purpose, a balancing act of complex & specific spices form every dish. Nothing is added for ‘aesthetic’.
Every dish you learn at Heavenly Morsel is complex & compelling- oscillating between the dynamic flavours of regions across the subcontinent.
Heavenly Morsel is a ONE cuisine specialist cooking school for all individuals who consider themselves a passionate cook, foodie, culinary aficionado or just zealous about sensational sumptuous food.
Tanya proudly opened Heavenly Morsel Melbourne, with the vision of bringing authentic Regional Indian cooking into the spotlight, through bespoke luxurious class settings where one can relax & be taken on a mouth-watering culinary journey that awakens all five senses.
After dining at countless Indian restaurants, reading plenty of online recipes & attending numerous “Indian” cooking classes in Australia, she was greatly disappointed at what was served or taught as there was no authenticity, nor delicious unique dishes showcasing the true cuisine!
These are no ordinary cooking classes. Heavenly Morsel is a luxury in-depth culinary experience like no other, where history meets passion & culinary skill. Almost everything you learn at the classes are treasured family recipes which have been passed down to Tanya from her ancestors, through her grandmother & mother – recipes that you won't find anywhere.
