We've stopped getting takeaways!

I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to write a review. To anyone who loves Indian food and wants to learn authentic recipes from all over India, I can honestly think of no better way to learn. The videos are well paced, informative and straightforward. The online live cookery classes are really good fun - Monica has a wealth of knowledge and tells you about the origin of the food, the best way to store spices, even the etymology of the Indian words. She's on hand to help via social media and email. These recipes are so much better than what you'd order in from a regular takeaway. We've actually stopped getting takeaways now - some of these recipes can be made very quickly and easily with not a great deal of washing up and they are just superior. You'll be making restaurant quality meals in no time.

Introducing your shikshak

Monica Haldar has been teaching Indian cookery for over 10 years after founding The Spice Club – her labour of love to showcase authentic Indian cookery in her own cookery schools and pop-up restaurants in Manchester and Birmingham. Her events grew through word-of-mouth, from humble beginnings to national acclaim, an Amazon Prime TV series and a 6-month wait-list for attendance to her cookery classes.
