Thekkady: Kerala Cooking Class with Market Visit｜India

Begin your journey with a visit to the local market, where you’ll learn about regional vegetables, spices, and cooking essentials. Your hosts will show you how to choose the best ingredients — just like locals do.

Then, back at the village kitchen, enjoy a hands-on cooking session preparing classic Kerala dishes using fresh produce, hand-ground spices, and age-old techniques. Learn to cook items such as Kerala-style curries (vegetarian & non-vegetarian options), coconut-based dishes and chutneys, rice accompaniments, and crispy sides.

Finally, sit down to enjoy your meal the traditional way — served on a banana leaf, with tea, laughter, and local stories. By the end of the class, take home recipes, memories, and the confidence to recreate the taste of Kerala wherever you go.
