Indian Cooking Class April 19, 2009

We have a very unique class with this one! Come join us at the BRAND NEW Indian Restaurant SpiceXing in the Old Town Center of Rockville, MD. Executive chef Sudhir Seth recently opened this new venue after his much popular Passage to India restaurant in Bethesda (which was voted one of Washington DC's "Best 100" restaurants).

We will be privileged to have Chef Seth take us through the culinary exploration of Indian Cuisine. This will be a DEMONSTRATION cooking class. From 12-2pm, Chef Seth will demonstrate the preparation and cooking of 4 unique Indian dishes....while we enjoy the sampling of Naans and Parathas (assorted fresh baked Tandoori breads). Once Chef Seth has demonstrated the cooking of a full Indian meal, we will spend an hour eating the dishes we just watched be prepared. Event will conclude at 3:00pm.

The dishes we will learn to cook (and get to eat!) are as follows:

1. Dum Ka Murg (chicken Mughlai style cooked en-daube)
2. Aloo Gobhi Chorchori (potatoes and cauliflower with 5 seed tempering)
3. Parappu Columbu (pigeon pea lentils with mustared and curry leaf)
4. Shahi Kheer (rice pudding with dry fruits and nuts)

The above dishes will be served with the following accompaniments:
-Zafrani Pulao (basmati with saffron)
-Raita (churned, spiced yogurt with mint & cucumber)
-Salad

Please note that for this class, wine and drinks are NOT included in the ticket price, so you will need to purchase on your own. However by attending the class, you will all receive a $25 gift certificate to SpiceXing!

Closest metro stop is Rockville, on the Redline (about a 10 min walk).

See you there for this unique event!
