Cooking workshop · Heerenveen · Friesland
From simple, fast dishes to advanced classics, always mouth-watering. An Indian cooking workshop with fresh spices in the heart of Heerenveen, for all of Friesland.
We cook with fresh Indian spices, sourced directly from India, and work with:
MDH - Verse specerijen uit India 
Hanos - Horeca groothandel 
How you learn it
You don't just cook along: you learn to understand what you're doing and why. Every step is demonstrated and explained, so you can recreate it at home with confidence.
You learn why steps follow a certain order, and what happens if you switch them around.
When do the spices go in, when the onion, the tomato, the acidity? Timing makes the difference.
You learn the cues, by sight and smell, that tell you a dish is ready for the next stage.
Afterwards you get the full recipe and exactly the spices you need to make it once more at home.

“We hebben een hele leuke kookworkshop gehad van Saurav. Hij is erg vriendelijk en gepassioneerd over Indiaas eten. Hij houdt ook goed rekening met allergieën en dieet wensen. Zeker een aanrader!”
“Wat een bijzondere verrassing van mijn zus voor het behalen van mijn diploma. Ze vond via Google deze enthousiaste Indiase kookworkshop, gegeven door een Indiër die vloeiend Nederlands spreekt. Een prachtige combinatie van India en Nederland. We leerden op een rustige en persoonlijke manier over Indiase kruiden en maakten samen heerlijke gerechten. Zijn enthousiaste en ontspannen manier van lesgeven zorgde voor veel plezier én ontspanning. We kregen zelfs de recepten én de gebruikte kruiden mee naar huis. Een heerlijke, laagdrempelige ervaring en absoluut een aanrader voor iedereen die op een leuke en persoonlijke manier kennis wil maken met de Indiase keuken!”
“Geweldige ervaring! Ik had de advertentie bij AH gezien en besloot de workshop een kans te geven, maar ik had eerlijk gezegd niet verwacht dat het zó leuk en leerzaam zou zijn. Tijdens de workshop leerde ik niet alleen een gerecht maken, maar ik was ook in staat om het thuis precies op dezelfde manier opnieuw te bereiden. Inmiddels heb ik het gerecht al twee keer gemaakt en mijn familie is er dol op! Nu hoef ik alleen nog uit te zoeken waar ik alle ingrediënten kan vinden en welke andere heerlijke gerechten ik nog kan leren maken. Bedankt voor deze fantastische ervaring!”
