Fantastic. You'll not regret doing this....

Dean_S, Feb 2026

This is a fantastic experience. We stayed in the Taj Mahal hotel in Mumbai last week and ate at their Indian restaurant which was great but the meal we have with jasmine was on another level. The food was absolutely stunning. 1 fish curry 1 prawn & onion dish 1 Dal 1 beetroot and curd dish 1 green beans dish 1 coconut and cabbage dish All explained in plain English so that even I could follow. Jasmine is a fantastic teacher. The food once on the table was bountiful and impossible to eat it all, even if I really did want to. It's been an hour since I ate and I'm still full, and happy 😁 You won't be disappointed if you do this class. It's been the highlight of my trip so far.

Delicious experience

Cherie_A, Oct 2025

Absolutely loved this hands on experience. We made 8 dishes including two with giant prawns and one with white fish, plus ever so veg dishes and a great Keralan “fat” rice.my favourite was the Kerala fish curry. It was a great way to spend a few hours and have an introduction to local cuisine with a local hostess.

I'm so happy that I met Jasmin and her husband Wilson. The cooking course was amazing and the food was the best I've had throughout my journey in Kerala! It was such a treat to learn from Jasmin as she expertly weaved a traditional Keralan seafood feast together. Every ingredient was freshly procured in the morning. Four massive fresh prawns fried. Tuna curry masterfully seasoned. Lady fingers in coconut milk. Dhal. Beans kind of stir fried. Beet root with curd. I don't usually stuff myself, but this time it was worth it.

Amazing Cooking

Yvonne_D, Jan 2025

The cooking class with Jasmine was wonderful. She had already provided all the ingredients: fish, king prawns and chicken. Plus, of course, all the spices and vegetables you need. She prepared various wonderful dishes in front of us, all of which were delicious. It was a very warm and happy atmosphere. Many thanks to Jasmine for this wonderful event. Tip: Be sure to specify your meal preferences when booking. We hadn't specified anything and Jasmine had prepared fish. After she realized that it didn't really suit our taste, she quickly sent for some chicken too. It wasn't a problem at all that she also prepared this for us.
