Through detailed instruction and expert tuition, each masterclass will teach you how to use traditional Indian cooking methods, such as the tandoor, to make a range of dishes. Attendees will get advice on preparing ingredients and spicing, and will leave armed with an insight into producing great modern Indian cuisine.
