Class Description

Description

Master foundational knowledge of spices and masalas, which form the essential basis of authentic Indian cooking. Understanding how to select, blend, and preserve these aromatic ingredients is crucial to your culinary success. Your instructor will reveal the nuances and secrets behind spice selection, direct you to reliable sources for quality masalas, and teach you proper storage techniques to maintain their characteristic aromas and potency.

This highly interactive, hands-on class is conducted with the instructor actively guiding you through each step of the cooking process. You will work from scratch using premium ingredients, fresh spices, and quality produce. Beyond cooking, the experience emphasizes mingling with classmates, sharing diverse culinary background stories, and concluding with a communal meal celebration. After class, your instructor sends electronic copies of all recipes to your email so you have them permanently.

Following the cooking portion, enjoy a seated dinner experience where you savor the fruits of your labor together as a group.

Menu Overview:

Begin with pakora, a beloved Indian fried snack prepared traditionally. You will learn to create these treats using thinly sliced onions mixed with fry batter, commonly served alongside fresh green chutney. Saag paneer represents a classic Indian preparation featuring spinach combined with paneer, which is traditional cottage cheese. In this class, your instructor prepares paneer from scratch, so you learn this valuable technique yourself. Aloo gobi is a popular dry curry combining potatoes and cauliflower with aromatic spices, including panch phoron, asafetida, and turmeric for its signature golden color. Butter chicken, one of India's most beloved dishes, achieves its rich, creamy character through ghee, spices, and cream, traditionally served with bread or rice. Aloo paratha, a fried flatbread originating from the Indian subcontinent, is stuffed with seasoned mashed potatoes and is surprisingly simple to prepare.

Specific Dishes:

  • Pakora (onion fritters)
  • Saag paneer (spinach with Indian cheese infused with aromatic spices)
  • Aloo gobi and matar (cauliflower, potato, and peas curry)
  • Chicken makhni (butter chicken)
  • Aloo paratha (potato-stuffed Indian flatbread)

Important Note: A minimum enrollment of three students is required for this class to proceed. Should enrollment fall below this threshold, your instructor will contact you personally by phone or email to arrange an alternative date.

  • Pakora, Paratha, Saag Paneer, and Butter Chicken (Couples Class)

    We loved our afternoon cooking with Mukti - she exudes warmth and passion for both cooking amazingly flavorful Indian food and sharing her vast knowlege and experience. She was great involving the 9 students in our class in joining in the prep work, offering tastes along the way. She shared some of her personal story and many cooking tips with a freshness that felt intimate, even though she has probably shared the same info thousands of times. Everyone uniformly applauded the saag paneer as the best anyone had ever had - owing to the use of fresh whole spices that she toasts and grinds and combines with her homemade masala. The other dishes were wonderful as well. Highly recommend this experience!!!
