The Spice Club | BIRYANI FEAST MASTERCLASS

The biryani really needs no introduction. It's the evergreen one pot dish that ticks ALL of the boxes. Layered with spices, basmati rice, meat and vegetables, the biryani is the ultimate comfort food. BUT, do you know how to make one? If the answer is no (but you want it to be yes) join us in our kitchen as we divulge the secrets on how to cook this much loved delicacy from scratch at this very special, hands on masterclass. We will also be cooking up our favourite biryani accompaniments to create a delicious feast. A class not to…

Monica as always, delivered another masterclass! For anyone wanting to learn the techniques for cooking first class lamb biryani in a relaxed, informative & joyful atmosphere, Monica exceeded expectations. The proof was in the eating, where compliments were flying around the table and everyone saying how much they enjoyed it.

What a fantastic experience. The Biryani Feast Masterclass was well paced, fun, informative and delicious. Monica did a brilliant job of involving everybody in the group in the cooking and the knowledge and cooking skills she shared was done in such a friendly and digestible way. And to top it all off, we got to taste the amazing results of the class - the pakoras and the biryani were taste sensations and so tender. We will definitely look forward to trying g the dishes at home and attending further Spice Club classes in the future.
