Step into their cozy home at 3 PM, where this warm family of three takes immense joy in sharing the flavors, stories, and traditions of India. After a brief introduction and a friendly chat to get to know you, they will unveil the plan for the evening. Prepare yourself for a culinary trip that blends hands-on learning & cultural immersion.
The evening begins with a deep dive into the art of creating one of India’s most beloved snacks: crispy pakoras (fritters). This isn’t an average recipe – you’ll learn a unique method that guarantees these treats remain crunchy for hours.
Once the fritters are ready, it’s time to enjoy India’s iconic Masala Tea, or chai, crafted with an aromatic blend of spices. Alongside the pakoras, you’ll also savor 2 additional snacks of your choice.
With your palate awakened, it’s time to step into the kitchen. While some dishes will be pre-prepared for you to taste and enjoy later, you’ll have the chance to roll up your sleeves and cook 3-4 main dishes alongside your hosts. This hands-on experience allows you to immerse yourself in the techniques, aromas, and flavors of Indian cooking.
The session is highly flexible & tailored to your preferences. Whether there’s a specific dish you’re curious about or a new flavor profile you’d like to explore, they will ensure the experience is uniquely yours.
