Cooking Class: Indian Dishes at Home


This past Friday, I had the pleasure of leading a class in Indian Cooking at home. This is one of many classes I've been teaching at Jewett Farms Studio's gorgeous Newburyport location.

The class enjoyed some whole wheat samosas, stuffed with spiced potatoes, while I demonstrated the rest of the menu:
Whole-Wheat Samosas
Vegetables with Cilantro Chutney
****
Chicken Tikka Masala
Shrimp with Whole Spices
Smoked Eggplant (Eggplant Bharta)
Spinach with Fresh Cheese (Sag Paneer)
Moong Dal
Basmati Rice
Chutneys & Relishes
****
Fresh Fruit

Chicken tikka masala and Shrimp with spices: ready for dinner


Some of the spices we used at dinner (rear plate) and a selection of dals (lentils and beans)

We had a huge group of students (fifteen!) and everyone seemed to have a great time. Check my website for future classes: we have a canning workshop scheduled for the 7th and a Farmer's Market dinner for the 13th.
