Step into a rare and extraordinary culinary world with Heavenly Morsel’s Portuguese-Indian & South Indian Regional Cooking Masterclass—a cuisine seldom taught, deeply treasured, and rich with history.
This masterclass is profoundly personal.
The recipes, techniques, and flavours you will learn are rooted in my own heritage and family lineage, passed down through generations.
You are not learning from social media or modern adaptations —you are learning directly from an authentic source, guided by Spice Queen Tanya Carneiro, whose background brings this remarkable cuisine to life.
Portuguese-Indian cuisine is a hidden gem: bold yet refined, complex yet soulful, and filled with exquisite recipes rarely shared beyond the family table. In this immersive feast-style class, you will be guided step-by-step in creating several extraordinary dishes from scratch, using the most premium quality luxurious produce in Australia.
This is a hands-on experience designed to ignite your senses. You will blend spices, master heritage techniques, and create bold, exotic dishes that showcase the distinctive character of Portuguese-Indian and South Indian cooking—while discovering the fascinating cultural history behind each flavour, told through the eyes of the Spice Queen herself.
Heavenly Morsel teaches over 400 signature recipes across its masterclass collection, meaning this regional class can be booked over 40 times, each with a completely new and bespoke menu.
This is more than a cooking class, it is an invitation into lineage, tradition, and one of the most extraordinary cuisines you will ever experience.

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.
