Private Maharashtrian Cooking Class in Mumbai with a Local Family

This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. In your Mumbai cooking class learn to make 2 regional Maharashtrian dishes. In your 1.5 hour hands-on class, learn to make a seasonal vegetable and fish or chicken dish. After cooking, a few dishes that you might try are piyush (drink made using thickened yogurt and buttermilk) or kokum sharbat (cooling and thirst-quenching drink), suran kaap (yam fry) or mutton keema che muthe (spiced minced mutton) or alu vadi (spiced colocasia or taro root leaves), fish or chicken or mutton or crab gravy, rice or roti and thecha (condiment made with green chillies, peanuts and garlic) or khamang kakdi (cucumber salad). End your meal with dessert such as bhoplyachi kheer (pumpkin pudding) or sago kheer (pudding) and paan (mouth freshener). If you choose the market tour option, meet Rupa at her apartment and together you will drive down to the Chembur fish market for a guided tour. Here you will be introduced to the fresh catch of the day. Rupa will take you to her favorite vendors so that you pick up some fresh ingredients for your cooking class.
