Punjabi Masterclass January

11th January 2025, 10am-1:30pm

Our January Punjabi Masterclass is a homage to The Punjab. This large region of the Indian sub-continent is influenced by a variety of cooking styles and techniques. In this class we teach you how to prepare a selection of our favourite Punjabi dishes. Learn how to make delicious char-grilled meats and curries cooked in sizzling karahis. Chicken Jalfrezi and Lamb Karahi are two classic curries that are totally different but equally delicious. You will also prepare an authentic chaat inspired by the tasty street food of this abundant region.

What Will You Learn?

This class begins with a traditional Samosa Chaat. This street food snack is prepared with fresh pomegranate, coriander and tamarind chutney. The other starters are char-grilled but can be cooked on a BBQ or under an oven grill at home. Traditionally such barbecued meats are cooked in a Tandoor oven which is a popular method of cooking in the Punjab.

The main courses are classic Northern Indian dishes that can be easily cooked on a gas or electric hob at home. This class is as hands on as possible so you will have your own cooking station and get to prepare each dish. Please note that our chefs will cook the naan breads due to the training needed to use the tandoor oven. Instructions on how to prepare breads at home will be provided.

Do bring along any questions you would like to ask our chefs and don’t forget your appetite as there will be lots of eating to do at the end!
