Meals with Mini

Starting off the New Year with the January class & customary ‘Cheers with Chai’ ☕️ , the first photo sent in by Natalie - Tikki Chaat, a healthy version of the street food Aloo Tikki Chaat. Adding more photos as received by those who joined the class and those who could not but followed the recipe and instructions so well

Thanks all for joining and missed the ones who had to drop out last minute.

See you all in February.

The most popular Indian snack is definitely Samosa, with its crispy flaky outer shell and flavourful potato filling.

Our September class was all about the Samosa and an accompanying green & red chutney.

The most complicated part of the samosa is the technique to make and fill the cone to get the triangular shape, to help get that right on a zoom class, a video was shared prior. And we did this together on Zoom. Not perfect results but pretty good and close!

Brynn Hansen got creative and decided to do a samosa roll instead 😋

Join us for more authentic home made Indian recipes. DM to know more.

Last class of the year coming up in November, we will be doing another snack menu - Pakodas (fritters) and Roasted Fox nuts that you could surprise your guests with, over the Holiday season.

We completed a wonderful set of 3 cook-along classes, as always I have fallen back on posting regularly therefore posting pics from the various classes all together.

The recipes were designed to complete the entire cooking process within 1 hour.

*What did we cook?*

*Kerala Pineapple Curry with curry leaf rice
*Stuffed parathas (using cookie cutter method to get perfect shape) with pickled salad
*Jackfruit Biryani with Boondi Raita

I really look forward to each of these classes, talking about current situation in each country participants live, the way life has changed everywhere post covid, the impact of global warming on climate and ofcourse the most important topic - Food. 🍱

Here’s to more classes and more cooking and more Indian recipes 🧑‍🍳🌿🥗

Thank you to everyone for their wonderful photos

Catching up with overdue posts!

A private cooking class for Jackie and her friends, early February.

Jackie and I met bcoz of Obi, who celebrates his 9th birthday this month. Obi traveled to USA at 4 months, was adopted immediately, but due to a family situation needed to be rehomed. Jackie became his saviour and Obi happily settled into the life he needed.

Obi was very much a part of our cooking class, probably wondering about familiar aroma from Indian recipes.

On the menu was Paneer Butter Masala, Jeera Rice and Cucumber Peanut Salad. Looks wonderful 😋

Thanks for sharing the photos Jackie 💕
