This menu checks of all these boxes while taking you on a trip to Southern India, focusing on key ingredients: fish, coconut, and tamarind, and classic dishes. Meghna will start class with an in-depth conversation on spices, then we'll cook together to make a vibrant meal that will brighten our January evening.
