Flavors of Malaysia: Holiday Bites

This is a live, interactive, hands-on cooking class held online via Zoom. See our event policies at the bottom of this webpage.

This holiday season, give yourself and others beautiful bites of delicious (and portable!) Malaysian treats! Since we shouldn't be feasting together, it shouldn't stop you from sharing your love for cooking by gifting food. The hand-crimped beautiful spiral curry puffs filled with spiced chicken curry will sure to impress your family and friends. Plus, green conical "trees" of pulut inti is certainly on point with the season!  One savory and one sweet treat, perfect for taking a break with a cup of tea as we wind down from 2020.
