A hands-on in-person cooking class culminating in a dinner served with wine and beer. This class is limited to 14 students. Review our registration and cancellation policies here.

We know that homemade tastes better, but time and intimidation often prompt us to take store-bought shortcuts. Meghna will teach you that not only can you make India’s most famous cheese at home, you’ll also learn a few recipes to help this cheese shine!

In class, we’ll make paneer from scratch, plus two dishes: Matar Paneer and Dahi Ke Kebab. Along with the paneer-based dishes, we’ll make spiced rice, boondi raita, and mint chutney to round out the dinner table. By the end of the class, not only will we feast, you’ll have the skills and confidence to make your own paneer at home!
