Come and taste how authentic Indian food should taste. I will take your through a 3 course menu that serves up all the street food favourites done the 'real' way. No gimmicks, curry jars or ingredients that no one can pronounce - just real food made with real ingredients, the Indian way!
TO BEGIN
Chicken manchurian
A fusion street food dish, blending far eastern and Indian flavours. Battered chicken pieces cooked in a sweet and sour sauce with bell peppers and red onions
Or
Vegetarian manchurian
A vegetable version of the popular fusion dish. Lightly battered cauliflower cooked in a sweet and sour sauce with bell peppers and red onions and wilted spinach
THALI - In the middle
*Thali - is an Indian style round platter, made up to serve a selection of various dishes (between 4 to7). This style of serving is popular throughout India and 1000’s of meals are served in a thali every day, which vary from region to region. The one here is inspired from The Punjab - North India
Samosa chutney
The godfather of Indian snacks - a fried triangle pastry snack, stuffed with spiced potatoes and peas. Served with a tamarind sauce
Gol gappa
Crispy whole-wheat puffed spheres filled with potatoes, chickpeas, sweet and sour tamarind. Pop them whole in your mouth. Fun and social snacks – also known as pani puri in southern India
Channa puri
A delicious chickpea curry served with crisp unleavened deep-fried Indian bread, which is also referred to as bhature. This is also a very popular breakfast dish
Chicken tikka
Small pieces of boneless chicken oven baked using skewers after being marinated in spices and yogurt. The word tikka means "bits" or "pieces". This is a popular chicken dish served in Punjabi cuisine and very different to chicken tikka masala, the favourite British curry dish

A simple potato and aubergine curry – a classic combination
Basmati chawal
The king of rice, served simply plain boiled
*Thali also includes 2 rotis- a flat and thin traditional Indian bread, cooked on a griddle
TO FINISH
Rasmalai
The name rasmalai comes from two words in Hindi; ‘ras’ meaning juice, and ‘malai’ meaning cream. It has been described as ‘a rich cheesecake without a crust’ Indian cottage cheese cooked in sugar syrup and dunked in sweetened condensed milk to give it a creamy consistency. Garnished with ground pistachios
Masala chai
Originating in India, this drink has gained worldwide popularity, becoming a feature in many coffee and tea houses. Masala chai is flavoured tea made by brewing black tea with a mixture of aromatic Indian spices, sugar and milk and brought to the boil and then simmered to reduce and infuse the flavours. Spices added include; black and green cardamom, fennel seeds and cloves

Excellent experience. I learnt so much. Nothing was too much trouble and everything was provided. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in learning about Indian cousine. It would also make a great gift idea for birthdays, for example.
