INDIAN BANANA LEAF RICE COOKING EXPERIENCE (VEGETARIAN FRIENDLY)

Hands-on  Cooking Experience by Lilly Wright (Flying Chillies)

Barkly Square Ballarat

The tradition of having banana leaf rice comes from Southern India where rice is more commonly consumed compared to 'roti' or naan. If you are familiar with Indian Rice Thali which is served on round metal plates, banana leaf rice has a similar concept whereby several dishes such as vegetables, rasam (sour soup), curries, and papadam'(crispy crackers) are served along with rice. However, all the dishes are served on a piece of banana leaf instead of a metal plate. In these classes, you will be guided by Lilly, who will use the traditional technique to create sambal paste. Working in groups, you will prepare your meal from scratch from introducing all ingredients to preparing your spice paste. The menu for this class will be:<ul><li>Papadam</li><li>Lentil dhal</li><li>Eggplant and potato curry</li><li>Cucumber raita - Chopped cucumber in yogurt</li><li>E﻿ggs curry </li><li>R﻿oasted cauliflower and chickpea curry</li><li>C﻿hicken kurma in coconut gravy</li><li>Chicken 65 - deep-fried chicken with curry spice</li><li>Steamed jasmine rice</li><li>Rasmalai truffle</li></ul>Enjoy the feast in our beautiful communal dining setting, finishing off with a delicious dessert. You will have the opportunity to mingle with other participants, learn from others, and chat with Lilly. Have opportunities to ask questions and learn more about Malaysian cuisine. <h3>This class is suitable for vegetarians.</h3>
