A Starter-Kit; a Spice Box; a special Rolling pin just like my grandmother’s; a Paneer Press to make cheese yourself, an Idli mould for fluffy steamed rice cakes, one of the many Spice mixtures and Chatnis, give someone a Gift Voucher for a private course or Indian products.
Meet Parul..
After completing BA Fine Arts, I trained and worked as an assistant photographer in India, including a project on a Kerala Cook Book that led me to work with a publisher in London and Spain. I started my business Cook Indian in Bern Switzerland in 2006. After 8 years of experience teaching from home, working at the Migrosclub School and with an internet team event platform, I have continued my cooking courses since 2015 in my own newly built kitchen at home in Aesch LU at Hallwilersee (lake Hallwyl).
My USP - following in my mother's footsteps, who loved to cook and eat together, I teach authentic Indian cuisine in my home with tips and tricks from my Indian heritage. Other cooks claim, "curry” with "yellow color" as the main spice in their Indian cooking classes. Not true! The word curry does not exist in the Indian cuisine and "chili hot" is a personal choice. Come to my Indian cooking experience and I will show you how the real Indian spices elevate ordinary sauces or curries to spicy masalas.
