Highly recommend! - Absolutely recommend Jyotis cooking class. Such a friendly, well traveled and charming lady. She explained Indian cooking traditions, taught me to make a few dishes which we then enjoyed together and sent me home with recipes. Very well organized and entertaining and a unique experience in her home. Thanks Jyoti!

A Heartfelt Culinary Journey with Jyoti in Delhi - If you want to experience the most authentic and homely Indian cuisine, look no further than Jyoti. Jyoti is a strong, kind, and energetic mother and the best cooking teacher in Delhi! She listens attentively to your needs and guides you step by step into the world of Indian cooking. From the basics of spices to the complexities of various dishes (regional, seasonal, vegetarian, and meat-based), you will be amazed by the versatility of Indian cuisine. The time spent with Jyoti is both fulfilling and relaxed. There is always something new to learn, and you get to cook with your own hands. Enjoying the fruits of your labor at the end of the session is immensely rewarding, and you’ll leave with unexpected insights, allowing you to recreate the flavors of India back home. What impressed me the most was Jyoti’s passion for life and her resilience. Conversations with her not only provide cultural insights into Delhi but also radiate her abundant energy. Thank you, Jyoti, for an incredibly enriching last day in Delhi. I gained so much from this experience! See you again.

Amazing experience - learn to cook and eat amazing food! - We had the best time with Jyoti - we would definitely recommend a cooking class with her. She was extremely welcoming and personable, adapting the menu to what we wanted to learn to cook. The food was absolutely delicious and it was one of the highlights of our trip. It was great to see her home and get a glimpse into life living in New Delhi. We now feel way more confident cooking Indian cuisine when we get back to the UK. Absolutely brilliant experience - definitely recommend booking.

Fantastic cooking experience to learn how to create authentic Indian flavours. We would highly recommend to anyone! - My wife and I had a fantastic experience celebrating her birthday with Gourmet Desire. Jyoti was amazing and had a wealth of knowledge about Indian cooking to share with us. We both love Indian food and wanted to learn the authentic way to use spices to create complex flavours and a true taste of India. We learned so much during our experience and even better was to eat our labour at the end. Jyoti and her son made my wife’s birthday truly and special and we have created memories to treasure for a life time.
