An Indian thali is a traditional meal made up of a variety of dishes served on a large platter. It’s essentially a balanced meal offering a mix of flavours and textures, with regional variations showcasing local ingredients and cooking styles.
At our thali workshop, we’ll make some traditional dishes and then sit down to enjoy them together.
The dishes we’ll make include:
– Masoor dal
– Bombay potatoes
– Onion bhajis
– Chana masala
– Jeera rice
– Raita
– Kachumber salad
– Mango chutney
We’ll serve this alongside some chapatis to complete the thali experience.
Our workshops are fun and informal, our tutor will support you to prepare the recipes. We’ll chat about the dishes we’ve prepared and share ideas on how to create Indian thali at home.
All recipes are suitable for vegetarians and easily adaptable to be plant based.
Please note wheat and dairy will be used in the workshop. Please let us know of any dietary requirements while booking.
The course is suitable for beginners and people with some experience interested in trying out something new.
