It was lovely to spoil Nicholas and his wife Zac on her birthday,. With a beautiful new baby to nurse (17 days old), celebrating at home with an Indian feast was the perfect way to mark Zac's special day.

Thanks for the review below Nicholas.

"I hired Manika for my wifes birthday to prepare Indian food for 4 guests. She arrived on time and worked around us and the four kids in the house while she prepared our dinner. Once we put the kids to bed she presented a wonderful 3 course dinner for us. We have an open plan kitchen diner so Manika was present throughout, she was able to unintrusively prepare dinner, serve, interact with us whilst giving us space to enjoy our evening. It was an excellent evening".

Mission accomplished! 👌🏽

I spare no effort to make my clients events special . I love to hear how pleased they are.

Thanks Alice 🙏

“Thank you so much for catering for my Mum's 60th yesterday. The food was delicious and the service you and Bethany provided from table setting and beyond was amazing.

Everyone loved the evening and having you there meant we were all able to sit back and enjoy the evening to the full. So thank you for enabling all of that to happen”.

🎉 It was so great to offer guests at Jo’s 50th a mouthwatering Indian buffet of tandoori chicken, bhajis, fried paneer, chicken curry, Daal Makhani, cumin potatoes and various sides.

I loved that they loved it ❤️

😭 The minute spices are ground, their volatile flavour molecules start to sail away into the ether, never to return.

😃 But hey! It’s cool

💪 Grind your own, use immediately, and you will be throwing a flavour bomb into your dish 😍

Treated myself to haddock yesterday flavoured in a beautiful marinade of freshly grated aromatic garlic and zingy ginger, fennel seeds, oil and other spices. Then pan fried. So quick!

Enough for my lunch today.

My cookery classes really are an education!

Did you know that spices have top notes like wine and perfume? And that the potential for flavour is affected by cooking techniques and the surface area of spices?

Due to popular demand, I have 4 more fun and friendly group cookery classes planned. I keep classes small to maintain quality of teaching so book early!
Book here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/manikas-indian-kitchen-41513221543

One to one and couples classes are available too.

"Bad food is made without pride, by cooks who have no pride, and no love. Bad food is made by chefs who are indifferent, or who are trying to be everything to everybody, who are trying to please everyone... Bad food is fake food... food that shows fear and lack of confidence in people's ability to discern or to make decisions about their lives." - Anthony Bourdain
