• Nehru Place - Shivani warmly invites guests to her charming bungalow in South Delhi for an immersive cooking and dining experience. During the Delhi cooking class, Shivani will guide participants in preparing 2-3 Amritsari dishes. These may include dal makhni, a slow-cooked dish featuring whole black lentils, kidney beans, butter, and cream, a paneer (fresh Indian cheese) dish, or rotis (flatbreads). Expect to spend about an hour cooking before enjoying the meal you helped create, accompanied by engaging conversation with your host.

After the cooking session, savor a traditional Amritsari meal that might feature gobi aloo (cauliflower and potato) or sarson da saag with makki di roti (a seasonal winter dish of mustard leaves and spices served on corn flatbreads), chole (chickpea curry), or makhani paneer. Delight in her mother’s special Amritsari mutton (goat) curry and conclude your meal with a sweet treat, either kheer (rice pudding) or gud ka halwa (a dessert made with semolina, jaggery, and an abundance of nuts), a true Amritsari specialty.
