There are many classes to choose from. Learn to layer
flavours and create blends that are at the heart of Indian cooking.
Time saving techniques and creating distinct, bursting flavours are the
hallmarks of each class. Each class will cover a full meal and all
ingredients and recipe sheets are provided. All classes are hands-on
(and lots of fun!) and we eat what we cook
at the end of a class.
Booking is essential of walks and classes. Please check

HEALTHY INDIAN IN MINUTES

tube at 3pm)
Based on Monisha’s new book, this class
will be about fresh, healthy Indian food cooked quickly and with a
minimum of
fuss and bother. Although many people outside India believe that Indian
food is
greasy and spicy, everyday Indian home cooking is not unhealthy or
fattening.
In fact, it is a highly nutritious, gentle cuisine that has always
included
natural and whole foods such as whole wheat flour or raw cane sugar,
lots of
vegetables, beans, lentils and any number of healing spices.
