Curry Bonanza
This is a live, interactive, hands-on cooking class held online via Zoom. See our registration policies here.
Summer is winding down and school is starting up again. Let's get back into weeknight cooking that comforts, nourishes, and makes for delicious leftovers for busy days. Even as the temps warm up in the Bay Area (called seasonal lag), we think it's the right time to cook up some curries with Meghna! Spices that warm you up and make you sweat are very effective at cooling you down, so regardless the weather where you live, cook with us!
MENU
Navrattan Korma—A medley of vegetables cooked in tomatoes and onions and finished with cream or coconut milk
