Welcome to the Heavenly Morsel Soul Food Series - a collection of deeply comforting regional dishes made for slow weekends, long lunches and gathering around the table with the people you love.
If you’re looking for culinary inspiration, with easy & mouthwatering plant based meals for weeknight or hosting then it doesn’t get better than this..
This is more than comfort food.
It's mindful cooking, with heart.
Food made with intention and care.
This masterclass features recipes that are easy and quick, but also some which require slow cooking and a little bit of patience..
These are the dishes you make when time slows down. When the music is on, the aromas fill your home, and every layer of flavour is built with patience, care and intention.
The kind of food you eat with your eyes closed.
Flavours that light your soul on fire.
Food that hugs you back..
This masterclass celebrates India's most comforting recipes - the dishes lovingly prepared for family gatherings, celebrations and leisurely weekends.
Every recipe invites you to slow down, savour the process and experience the joy of cooking from the heart.
Like all Heavenly Morsel classes, we use premium ingredients, freshly roasted whole spices and authentic techniques, with absolutely no shortcuts, packaged spice mixes or commercial premixes.
Every flavour is built from scratch, allowing you to experience these dishes as they were always meant to taste.
The Soul Food Series is divided into Northern India and Southern India, each showcasing an entirely different style of comfort food, regional traditions and flavour profiles.
After booking, we'll chat about which region speaks to you most, so your class can be tailored to your culinary curiosity.
Whether your heart longs for rich, slow-cooked northern classics or the vibrant, comforting flavours of the south, you'll discover recipes that become part of your family's table for years to come.
Food that brings people together, creates lasting memories and reminds us that some of life's greatest moments happen around a shared table.
Come hungry.
Leave nourished - in every sense of the word.
Re-create the menu learned at Heavenly Morsel for your own feast or Indian cuisine dinner party and impress your guests!

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 Beth Rogers, attended Aug 2026: We had a great time in the class. It was well prepared and Tanya was very informative taking extra time to ensure everyone took part in the class. The meal that was prepared was delicious! We will be back!
  • 5/5 from Sharyn Newman, attended Aug 2026: Expert explanation from beginning to end. Where to park, what to expect, and what we’ll make Tanya is a very talented and experienced cookery teacher. Her passion is evident and her guidance is excellent. The 7 people that I shared the day with were singles and couples. I enjoyed every minute of the day. You will come away with knowledge and a new apply for the Indian cuisine. Highly recommend this course to anyone who enjoys cooking. It’s not difficult and you will be able to easily replicate it at home. Tanya has a “store” set up so you can surely purchase anything that you may require. No hard sell - just gentle guidance.
  • 5/5 from Nelia G, attended Jan 2025: Best cooking class iv been too. She was detailed with passed on knowledge from family and experiences, we all participated in the recipes which was fun. She was very professional and the place was amazing.

  • 5/5 from Sharon Atkinson, attended Jul 2024: Fantastic class. This is the second of Heavenly Morsel’s classes I’ve attended - because the first was so good! Great hands-on cooking and learning all the nuances that go in to making great dishes that just don’t translate from cook books at home. Not only do you learn how to make several Indian dishes, you also learn about the ingredients, the do’s and don’t’s, alternative cooking methods and ingredients. You’ll leave the class feeling inspired to practice your cooking skills confidently at home and you most definitely will impress at the dinner table.

I can’t finish without saying the the play list was really cool and the take home containers…really, really cool and they work, (small problem going around a sharp corner on my way home!) My daughter and I had a great day.

What did you do / learn? - aside from cooking 6 recipes start to finish, I learned about how gentle one needs to be with spices so as not to burn them What did you like most? - super relaxed and fun vibe!

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.
