  • Virtual Potato Gravy and Missi Roti - Vegetarian/Vegan

    Reviewed by Natalie L. on 10/25/2020
    I really enjoyed this class. We learned comfort food, Potato Gravy and Missi Roti. The instructor, Sheela Vijay is very knowledgeable with the various regions of East Indian cooking. She provides a background of the food, history, spices. and utensils used in Indian cooking. It is very helpful for those with absolute no knowledge or those who have a knowledge of how Indian foods are prepared. Indian food sounds and looks complicated to make but Ms. Vijay will guide you through it and show how simple Indian cuisine is. She really wants you to learn and I learned a lot. She is patient and explains clearly. She even guides you if you are interested in substituting ingredients. I highly recommend taking this class and any class offered by this instructor.
  • Virtual Aloo Paratha (bread) with Cucumber Raita (Dip)

    Anonymous review on 8/7/2020
    Sheela was a fantastic cooking teacher! Her love of Indian recipes is very evident in the way she teaches. It was great to hear factoids about Indian cooking, and I loved that the recipe was on the healthier side (vegetarian and whole wheat flour). I look forward to taking more classes with her in the future.

    Sheela was great, very knowledgeable, made everyone feel at home, and checked in individually with everyone. I’d definitely take another class with her!
