Private Cooking Lesson and Meal in a Local Delhi Home

Shivani will welcome you into her beautiful bungalow. They have a small outdoor seating area where they like to barbecue meats and paneer (fresh cheese) in the winter. Shivani is a Punjabi from the holy city of Amritsar in north India. 

You can expect cook for about 1 hour before you sit down to share your meal together. Shivani may prepare additional dishes in advance to complete your Amritsari meal. Other dishes you might taste include rajma chawal (red kidney beans in a thick gravy served with rice), gobi aloo (cauliflower and potato), chole (chickpea curry), sarson da saag with makki di roti (a seasonal winter dish of mustard leaves and spices served on corn flatbreads), her mother’s special Amritsari mutton (goat) curry and end your meal with something sweet, either kheer (rice pudding) or gud ka halwa (dessert made with semolina, jaggery and loads of nuts), an Amritsari specialty.

Please note, this is not a professional cooking class, rather this experience is a visit into an authentic, local home to meet a local person and share the culture and cuisine together.
