Guests and hosts preparing vegetables together at the clay kitchen counters

Your hands. Our fire. A shared feast.

Every cooking class is hands-on and unhurried. Here's how your experience unfolds.

  1. Hosts welcoming guests in the garden

    Step 1

    Make yourself at home

    Meet your hosts, settle in with a welcome drink, and talk through what you would like to cook.

  2. Hands grinding spices with a stone roller on a grinding stone

    Step 2

    Cook like a local

    Use equipment that our grandmothers still use and methods going back to our great-great-grandmothers.

  3. A wood fire burning in the clay hearth

    Step 3

    Cook over the wood fire

    With clay pots, an open flame and your hands doing the work, rice, curries, sambols and papadams come to life.

  4. A plate being filled with rice and curries from the clay pots

    Step 4

    Eat what you cooked

    Gather round the table and enjoy the meal you have made, together like a family.
