Flavours of Karnataka Cooking Class (Mangalore Cuisine)

Heavenly Morsel's newest release for 2025... Karnataka is one of the 6 major South Indian states in India that boasts of its rich cultural heritage and its tantalising cuisine which features a variety of diverse culinary traditions.Karnataka cuisine ranges from pure veg food on one end of the spectrum and non-veg on another. Coconut, however, is an important ingredient and is found in almost every dish in some form or the other.Physiographically, Karnataka is divided into four distinct regions—the coastal plain, the hill ranges, the Karnataka Plateau, and the black-soil tract.In this Karnataka series at Heavenly Morsel, we will be focusing on the coastal and hill regions which are my favourite culinary areas of this state.Sample Menu Items (Over 50 dishes from this region to choose):

• Mangalore’s Famous Chicken Curry
• Red Spiced Jumbo Prawns Cooked In Ghee
• Ancient ‘Risotto’ Style Dish With Rice, Lentils And Vegetables
• Semolina Fish Fry
• Mangalore Fish Curry
• South Indian Lemon Rice Pilaf
• Stuffed Baby Brinjal Curry W/Peanut, Coconut & Sesame
• Traditional Eggplant Rice Pilaf (Roasted Spices)

As I said... irresistible and unique – perfect for my returning guests wanting to delve deeper into regional cuisines.-------------------Before you book, please acknowledge the way we do things..as we will strictly not tolerate compensation seekers or those claiming the description did not match the labour intensive & extravagant 5 star rated experience I provide. This is extremely rare for us, but like all businesses we come across these individuals too. If you are after a cooking class where you stand behind a bench at your station, cooking a designated recipe from the class menu & just following a chef the whole time, this is not the class for you.Heavenly Morsel's much loved hands-on high detailed class structure, operates very differently, the food you learn at Heavenly Morsel classes, is so high skilled, unique and extraordinary it must be taught in intimate groups where we cook every dish one at a time as a group with my guidance, so everyone goes home with their portion of our feast, feeling confident they have learnt every dish. Everyone has a contribution by participating in every dish & those who are particularly excited in a specific dish can do more of that one! Plenty of hands on cooking and learning awaits you.Heavenly Morsel is for those serious about learning interesting and non-common food unike what is taught everywhere else, and from cook books, which is why we spend the full 4hrs cooking a feast before packing your portion of the dishes to take home and enjoy -  instead of me teaching you 3 basic items over 2 hrs and spending the rest of the 1hr sitting and dining at my venue.  You can have a taste of each dish as its prepared warm, and also my luxury complimentary grazing board to feast on provided FREE of charge with a range of free mocktails, herbal teas and beverages I prepare for you as a hostess gift. Absolutely nothing is to purchase at Heavenly Morsel, whatever you see, is provided for free.We are the only cooking school to offer this gift whilst you cook, elsewhere participants are expected to wait until the very end before eating. It truly is a beyond value culinary experience from the food to the offerings such as limiting my hands-on class to a micro number of 8 instead of cramming in guests reducing hands-on cooking, using the finest organic produce and placing a huge number of main dishes in each class, instead of just 2 mains and salads or dips. 

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 8 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
