Kerala Cooking Class with Charming Freeda in her Kochi Home

Join Freeda in her contemporary home overlooking the lush green Ernakulam landscape for a private, hands-on cooking class where you will learn to prepare traditional Kerala dishes. Begin your culinary adventure with a welcome appetizer and drink before rolling up your sleeves to learn to cook traditional South Indian dishes. After cooking a traditional Kerala meal, enjoy the meal you helped prepare with your host at her dining table. You might try dishes such as a Kerala-style chicken stew or fish curry, karimeen pollichathu (marinated fish wrapped in banana leaves and grilled) or Syrian beef fry (strips of beef cooked in pepper and spices), appams and a seasonal vegetable followed by a delicious western-style dessert. You will not want this experience to end but when it does, you will leave with new friends, a full belly, printed copies of Freeda's personal recipes, and a true glimpse into a local's life.

Freeda is one of those people who makes you feel instantly at home when you meet her. After a break for a few years, she has started hosting again! Enjoy a hands-on Kerala cooking class with this charming host. With a local snack and refreshing drink, Freeda welcomes you into her contemporary apartment overlooking the lush, green Cochin landscape. You will then join her in her kitchen to learn to prepare 2-3 traditional Kerala dishes from recipes passed down through generations in her family. After cooking, enjoy your meal over laughter and fun conversation with Freeda at her dining table. Your meal includes local beer. Leave with printed copies of Freeda's personal recipes and memories to last a lifetime. If there is a particular dish you are interested in learning to make, please let Freeda know when making your booking.
