Join your host Sundari and experience authentic Indian life, culture and cuisine with a welcoming local in her home. Sundari will teach you to prepare 4-5 dishes as part of your South Indian vegetarian meal which you will later eat the traditional way - with your hands on stainless steel plates or fresh banana leaves.
Your menu may include typical Tamilian vegetarian main dishes such as rasam (tangy peppery broth), sambar (lentil and tamarind based vegetable stew), and a variety of vegetable curries, rice, raita, condiments and snacks. Alternatively you may request to learn to make a South Indian brunch of dosas, idlis and vadas with a variety of chutneys instead.
Come join Sundari, and leave with new recipes, a new friend and lifelong memories!
