Indian Cooking Classes

The lesson was fantastic. After expressing my interest in learning how to make naan, the instructor exceeded my expectations by incorporating it into our class. In just two hours, we successfully prepared all of our dishes. Additionally, she was extremely friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable!

During COVID, my sister, who was undergoing chemo, was unable to go out for her birthday dinner as she usually loves to do. As she also enjoys travelling to India, I asked Majiri to prepare an Indian meal for her special day. Majiri exceeded our expectations by delivering a mouth-watering meal for my sister and her partner while taking COVID precautions to ensure her compromised immune system was not affected. Although Majiri is not a professional chef, she kindly made this exception and I highly recommend her – whether it's to teach you to prepare Indian dishes or to make them for you. We were thrilled with her services and grateful for the joy she brought to my sister's day. Majiri is truly awesome – Namaste!

For some time, I searched for a bona fide Indian cooking course, but all I could come across were courses at a dull cooking school, which may not even be taught by a native chef. Luckily, I stumbled upon Thumback and Manjiri's course. I instantly messaged Manjiri, and she responded the same day with details about the course and her availability. I called her to make arrangements, and it was akin to talking to an old buddy. Upon arriving, Manjiri had everything ready - fresh ingredients, kitchen utensils, an apron, and printed recipes. After some introductions, she went through each recipe step-by-step so that I could be confident during the hands-on portion of the class. The recipes were manageable, not daunting, and incredibly delicious. I left the course assured that I could make a variant of the dishes without feeling intimidated. In fact, my husband was more thrilled than I was after trying out the dishes I brought home. Thank you, Manjiri, for being an exceptional teacher and friend!

Manjiri exceeded my expectations! I aimed to plan a fresh and enjoyable experience for my male friend's birthday, and contacted several vegan chefs. Unfortunately, many were unavailable due to either full classes or weekend sessions only. Despite that, I insisted we celebrate on his actual birth date, Wednesday. Manjiri was flexible and accommodating in contrast. Although I lived 55 minutes from her, the distance was worthwhile. I appreciated the one-on-one attention Manjiri provided, without any distractions or other couples present. She had prepared everything we needed and had even printed recipe guides for us. Beforehand, Manjiri gave us a comprehensive explanation of each step, and then we got hands-on. Her professionalism mixed with her fun-loving nature helped us feel at ease throughout the session. Most importantly, the food was amazing! My friend was ecstatic about the surprise private cooking lesson. Manjiri, thank you for making his day memorable. Your effort is priceless.

At the cooking class, my boyfriend and I had an absolute blast. Manjiri's professionalism and kindness made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. Not only were the dishes mouth-wateringly delicious, but they were also easy to replicate at home. I would wholeheartedly recommend this cooking course to anyone searching for a fun activity.
