Then, it's time for crispy fried spinach fritters, followed by paneer tikka masala, a warm and fragrantly spiced dish made with paneer cheese. Soak up every bit of the tikka masala sauce with fresh roti bread served on the side. For dessert, enjoy gulab jamun, a sweet and satisfying treat.

Chef Raina is so knowledgeable and so sweet, her husband was also extremely kind and super amiable, I had a great experience. They made the experience really laid back so I felt comfortable throughout the entire class. They answered all my questions and shared their experiences with me about Indian food and traveling around India. The class itself was hands on and super easy to follow, even for someone like me with little experience in Indian cuisine. Trying the spices was one of the highlights since a few of the spices were ones I hadn’t tasted before or simply did not know the name of. I left the class really appreciating the food I had just made and definitely appreciating all the spices used, the depth it gave the food, and the amount of work one has to do to make these yummy samosas. I will be taking more of her classes in the future!!
