Cook and eat your very own six-course south Indian feast in this intensive but practical workshop.

Indian food connoisseur, cook and writer, Bhavna Kalra, invites foodies for an informative and delicious class on Indian cooking using seasonal vegetables.

If you are someone who loves eating a Dosa (Lentil crepe), fancy cooking it, or just enjoy eating delicious, authentic, and hearty Indian food, then this class is made for you!

In this five-hour cooking class, you will:

  • Practice Indian cooking techniques and learn tips and tricks;

After the class, you will come away with knowledge on how to easily prepare your delicious curries, Dals, and breads. We hope this will then motivate you to add a wholesome, healthy Indian way of cooking to your home-cooked, fresh meals.

This class will also give you the confidence to be familiar with spices and lentils that you can use when cooking other dishes and cuisine.

A passionate cook connecting cultures with food. Serving real Indian feasts with stories.

On a mission to teach people that there is more to Indian food than Butter chicken and Rogan Josh. My love for food is infused with storytelling and memories so you can understand and appreciate where the ingredients came from and how easy it is to whip up a six to seven-course Indian meal any day of the week.

The teacher was really welcoming and explained a lot about Indian food and customs and cooking techniques. A few dishes I struggled with in the past were clarified and the results were clear and tasty. There were a lot of new dishes we had not had before and everyone had a chance to be involved. Her home setting was well organised and clean and it was a great experience overall! We will be back for more!
