Cooking Class - Savor the Diversity of Delhi

Fantastic cooking class! I learned alot about Indian spices and how to use them.

Taruna's cooking class was a fantastic introduction to Indian cuisine! Not only did I learn delicious recipes, but I also got to meet her family and experience a bit of Indian culture firsthand. Taruna's patient instruction made the class a breeze, and the final meal was absolutely mouthwatering. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in expanding their culinary horizons.

We had a wonderful time with Chef Taruna! We enjoyed learning new techniques and our meal was delicious!

Ann and I are 78 and were at first surprised when a couple in their 40's joined us with Chef Taruna and her daughter Tara. The evening couldn't have been better. The exchange of information and viewpoints was comfortable and flowing. Chef Taruna was able to open our eyes and ears with quips and tales of her growing up in India with a grandmother still much part of her family caste. Coincidentally, both of the male guests take cooking seriously. I couldn't resist showing my cohort the different method I used for preparing fresh garlic. The plate of appetizers we each prepared all included the boiled potato awaiting one of several sauces. Much of the preparation time was shared together around the stove. I was pleased to learn of the Indian grocery store in Austin which I was not aware despite living here 17 years. Sitting together sharing our family meal and company made the taste that much more memorable. Thanks Again, Charles Cresswell

We enjoyed our time with Chef Taruna! She was very knowledgeable and shared her story with us. The meal was delicious and we can't wait to try it out at home ourselves!

The evening was beyond expectations. The uncomplicated recipes were healthy and doable using spices to make the foods interesting, different and delicious. I give Chefs Ash and Taruna my highest recommendation. Both are articulate instructors and bring their Indian culture alive. My friends and I felt like family friends not paying participants. Thank you. Susan Mc

Chef Ash and his wife Taruna hosted a fabulous night for my wife and me. The food was truly sensational, but we will also remember the night for their warm, delightful charm. We'd recommend this duo to anyone looking for great taste and conversation.

Awesome time!!!thank you for letting us into your lovely home!

Taruna was absolutely amazing!! The food was delicious and the environment was outstanding. The first cozy meal my fiancé and I have ever done and won’t be our last!

Wonderful experience! Fantastic food, family setting, and stimulating conversation. Feel like I have met new friends. Recommend highly.

Great couple, they made the whole experience fun! Great hands-on cooking experience. We were able to add in how to make Roti, a traditional flatbread. Step by step instructions and explanation made the prep and cooking unintimidating. We even went home with recipes and the names of all the spices and traditional ingredients. My wife and I highly recommend this class. Try something new, you won't regret it!

Nice family. Good food. Pleasant experience.

Taruna and Ash were excellent hosts! They taught us in a way that made us feel at home and did a great job at relating the meals to our every day lives. This was a fantastic experience and I’ll definitely recommend them to more.

We had a great time! Very personable and knowledgeable couple to spend an evening with. Their method really works well for all personalities; you can be as hands on as you want. Not to mention, the food was amazing!

We loved our experience! We were so impressed with the time and attention that went into the experience! The food was so incredibly delicious and we love that we have 5 new recipies. Thank you!

Ash and Taruna were fantastic. We had a wonderful time learning the recipes, as well as making new friends in the process. The food came out delicious and the company and conversation was even better. We'll be back!

Do Indian food and Southwestern food make magic together? In the kitchen of chefs Ash and Taruna, the answer is a resounding "yes!" Tofu joins spiced kidney beans in the Southwestern scramble, while the Bengal fish fry combines jalapeño marineade with a mint chutney to finish. Topped off with a Carrot Halwa, this class is a crash course in cooking vegetables to make your mouth water.
