Hands – on South Indian one – pot class includes homely Egg Fry.

Experience the heritage flavours of Thalappakatti Biriyani, a regional South Indian style known for its gentle spice, freshly ground masala and aromatic cooking.

Originating from the Dindigul region of Tamil Nadu, this biriyani is traditionally prepared as a one – pot meal (not a dum biryani) – practical, fragrant and deeply comforting without complexity.

This class will guide you through preparing a complete Chicken Biriyani in one pot, with mindful spice preparation, soaking, layering and slow cooking to bring out authentic flavour.

To accompany the biriyani, you will also learn how to make a cooling cucumber raita, a refreshing and traditional side that balances heat and adds lightness to the plate.

A simple, homely Egg Fry completes the meal and brings additional comfort and richness.

Taught by Sasi Krishnan, a regular cookery tutor at Honesty Cookery School and an experienced cookery teacher who values simple, nourishing food prepared with intention.

As a mum and home – style cook, Sasi naturally advocates cooking from scratch, understanding ingredients, and enjoying dishes that support everyday life in a balanced, practical and comforting way.

For lunch you will enjoy fruits of your labour, accompanied by a delicious glass of wine.
