"Love to eat Indian food? Want to learn how to make them at home? Come and join our classes!"
Indian Cookery Lessons started as a fun idea and continues to remain a fun project till date. It is a place where
you learn to cook good Indian food, eat all the food cooked, take some home, have a laugh and have fun all the
way!!
Our main focus is to build confidence rather than simply showing students how to prepare a dish. We achieve this
by creating a warm and supportive atmosphere where even the most shy student feels safe enough to try cooking
something totally new. We always encourage creative cooking rather than dogmatic following; hence our motto is
"give-it-a-try-and-see-what-evolves". We stay around to guide and support them should they need any help. Each
dish taught in class is prepared by students themselves. This gives them a 'hands-on' training and a real feel of what
the process involves, thus making it easier to prepare the same dish later on. Most students are easily able to
reproduce what they learnt in class at home.
Here's what happens in class:
 | We teach delicious homely Indian meals that are simple, quick and easy to achieve. We are fond of both 'restaurant | |
| style' and 'home-made' Indian food. There is a world of difference in both styles and what we attempt to teach is a fusion of both worlds - one which creates a 'restaurant style' taste minus excessive use of spices and oil. The end result is a tasty, mouthwatering meal which is equally healthy. We usually teach four dishes everyday, viz. starter, main course, side course and rice OR Indian bread. |
| Classes are held in English. Handouts are given for recipes taught along with a glossary of commonly used spices. | |
| All preparation work (i.e. peeling, chopping, boiling etc) is done in advance and not included in the class time. We cook enough for students to enjoy a hearty meal after a hard days work. Any leftovers (after everyone has eaten), can be taken home. We provide a take-away box too. All you have to do is pay and attend. We take care of the rest! You do not have to be a competent cook to attend. All you need is interest and motivation to learn. The rest is easy! |
| We are happy to accommodate special religious and dietary needs provided we know about them in advance. If you | |
| need any help preparing a meal at home after attending our classes, we would be happy to help via e-mail or telephone. |
| Most of our students are happy for us to take Pictures so that others can see what goes on in class. Many are | |
| happy to leave Feedback too for others to read. |
| Please visit our Recipes page for dish ideas. |
| The excitement does not stop there. Our students constantly give us ideas about how to progress our classes and | |
| we are immensely grateful to them! Thank you for visiting our website. - Nina Guha |
