Cooking Class - Everyday Indian in Northern Virginia

Chef Manjiri was very kind, helpful, a real down to earth and relatable person. She laid out everything that we would be using for the dishes and explained where we could get some authentic Indian ingredients and spices to recreate these at home! Really fun and tasty evening.

Delicious menu and simple to make. We cannot say enough about Chef Manjiri. This was stress free and very educational! Cannot wait to try this again!

We loved this class! Chef Manjiri taught us a lot about spices in Indian cuisine and introduced us to several new cooking methods, and we took home several days worth of delicious curry, spiced rice, and more. Would highly recommend this class!

Chef Manjiri is great! She explained everything very well and our food was delicious! Definitely take a class with her she is a pro!

The class with Chef Manjiri was great and better than expected. She was organized and made making 5 dishes in a short amount of time easy and fun. She was incredibly inviting and the food was great. I’m glad I chose this class and would do so again.

We had such a great time with Chef Manjiri! We learned so much and the dishes were simple enough that we could replicate at home--but still so delicious! Thanks for a great time.

Chef Manjiri was amazing!! My husband and I learned so much and had a great time while taking the class. It was a fantastic afternoon!

For my sister’s bachelorette, I got in contact with Chef Manjiri who very kindly taught us how to make several delicious Indian dishes at her home. Chef Manjiri was very prepared, and her process exceptionally streamlined. As a result, we were able to cook and pack up within the allotted time--which was great since we had another bachelorette event scheduled right after the cooking class. Also, half of us were vegetarian, and she was more than accommodating. Not only is Chef Manjiri well organized, she is also kind, sociable, and patient. She really helped cultivate a relaxing atmosphere, which I’d say is essential for novice cooks. I can’t speak highly enough about the class, and if you choose to take it, make sure to bring plenty of containers. You will walk out with lots of amazing food.

Wonderful experience! Even had a last minute change which Manjiri took in stride and made it work. Than you!!

Chef Manjiri systematically showed us how to make good vegetarian food, going through the recipe, then helping us prepare the ingredients, and then cook the ingredients so we understand how to make the food ourselves. We enjoyed the paneer butter masala and the Fruit Srikhan. She was very patient and answered all our questions so we really understand the dishes.

Chef Manjiri was excellent! Answered lots of questions and gave really useful tips throughout.

we had a great time learning to make butter chicken and other dishes. Chef Manjiri is incredibly well organized and runs the class with great professionalism. Highly recommend!

Chef Manjiri was fantastic! She was incredibly personable and made myself and my fiancé feel very welcome in her home - the food was spectacular and the recipe is something that we are adding to our normal rotations for dinners. Would definitely recommend the class!

Great host, wonderful experience and very tasty food.

Chef Manjiri's Indian cuisine and drink were amazing. I particularly enjoyed the Butter Chicken and Mango Lassi. I look forward to taking future classes with her.
