Indian Veggie Feast
Course Overview
Indian vegetarian food is far more than curries - it’s about contrast, balance, and everyday flavours done well.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll cook a vibrant Indian Veggie Feast that brings together playful starters, a comforting curry, and bold chutneys — all designed for modern home kitchens.
This class is about learning how Indian home-style and street-style flavours sit side by side on the same table. You’ll explore how spices are used for depth rather than heat, how texture transforms a dish, and how a few well-chosen techniques can elevate simple vegetables.
What you’ll be cooking:
-
Yogurt Puffs – crisp pastry shells filled with spiced yoghurt and tangy chutneys
-
Beetroot Cutlets – pan-fried beetroot and potato patties, served with chutney
-
Green Peas Curry – a comforting, flavourful curry topped with crunchy garnishes
-
Peanut Chutney – nutty, versatile, and perfect beyond this class
What you’ll walk away with:
- A hands-on feel for Indian spices, street food ingredients, and flavour pairings
- Confidence to recreate these dishes at home — no deep fryer or fancy gear needed
- A better understanding of how to layer textures, sauces, and toppings
- A recipe handout with simple tips and shortcuts
- A glass of bubbles to toast your efforts
- A small sweet treat to finish on a happy note
- And of course… a happy belly and tasting is absolutely part of the fun!
Whether you’re vegetarian, veg-curious, gluten free(can be customised), vegan or just love bold, tasty food, this workshop will inspire you to bring a little Indian magic into your home kitchen.
What to Bring:
- Apron (optional)
- Container to take home leftovers (optional)
- Pen & notebook (optional – handout will be provided)
The subsidised cost of this workshop for participants is made possible thanks to support from the North Sydney Council Small Grants Program.

Hi, I’m Anu, founder of Indian Veg Bites.
I’m a passionate home cook from India, now based in Neutral Bay, Sydney. I’m not a chef, just someone who loves good food, warm community, and the magic that happens when people cook together.
Through Indian Veg Bites, I run hands-on vegetarian cooking classes and Indian grocery tours, both in person and online. I’ve taught over 100 students via ClassBento (with 60+ glowing reviews) and love making Indian food feel accessible, practical, and full of flavour. No deep frying, just real ingredients, clever shortcuts, and soul-satisfying meals you’ll want to cook again and again.
Cooking keeps me connected to my roots and to my mother - whose simple, nourishing meals inspired everything I share today.
My classes go beyond recipes. They’re about stories, connection, and discovering joy through food.
If you’re curious about Indian food but don’t know where to begin, I’ll guide you every step of the way - with warmth, humour, and a touch of spice.
