Event Details

Discover the vibrant flavors of Sri Lankan cuisine in this hands-on demonstration class. Located at the crossroads of ancient spice routes, Sri Lanka's culinary traditions blend aromatic spices, fresh herbs, and bold flavors, reflecting centuries of cultural exchange.

In this session, you'll learn to prepare authentic dishes that showcase the island's distinctive cooking techniques. Master the art of balancing sweet, sour, and spicy notes in Cashew Chicken, where toasted cashews add richness to a fragrant curry. Explore the tangy complexity of Tamarind Shrimp, featuring the signature sour-sweet flavor that defines Sri Lankan seafood preparations. Create a traditional Eggplant Pickle—a condiment bursting with spices that transforms simple vegetables into an unforgettable accompaniment. Each dish pairs perfectly with fragrant Jasmine Rice. 

Whether you're new to Sri Lankan cuisine or looking to expand your culinary repertoire, this class offers practical techniques and cultural insights that will transport your cooking to the tropical shores of this remarkable island nation.
