E-cook (Virtual Cook Class)

Wonderful night cooking together on zoom! Highly recommend. The food was incredible

My family and I took a virtual cooking class by Neha, and it was so fun! We learned so much, and had delicious food at the end. Thank you so much, Neha!

The women in our family had a zoom cooking lesson with Neha. It was such a fun experience. Neha was a joy to work with. Her patience and guidance were so appreciated. She allowed us to take our time throughout the instruction. Since our family is spread out throughout the country, it was a wonderful way for us to spend time together. The end result was delicious food and a lot of smiles! Thank you, Neha!

My parents and I had such a fun time cooking with Neha! I coordinated the cooking class for my dad's birthday and he loved it. We will likely sign up for another class in the future. If you're looking for an intimate cooking class experience, definitely book a class with Neha!

This was one of the most unique experiences ever! Our nonprofit board gathered in-person to make paneer masala, aloo ghobi, and paratha, while Chef Neha instructed us from her kitchen in Delhi. We were provided detailed ingredient lists in advance and live step-by-step instructions (and tips and tricks) to help our group co-create an amazing meal. Everyone was truly impressed with Chef Neha's knowledge and expertise. Will definitely be working with Saffron Palate again!

My husband and I enjoyed our class with Neha tremendously! Neha is an excellent instructor, explains everything beautifully, accommodated both our diets....vegan and traditional meat eater. The food was outstanding! We will definitely take another class ...it was a lovely, lovely experience!

I actually did two cooking classes with Saffron Palate, one in person and the second was a special hybrid class with me in person and my family on zoom. Neeha was extremely flexible and hospitable giving me tips for traveling around India and also putting a lot of effort into the hybrid class and menu. The hybrid class went off perfectly - Neeha is amazing with the technology and set up and put a lot of effort into advance instructions and prep to ensure all went well. She explains the dishes both from cultural and culinary perspectives and gives very clear and understandable instructions. A fantastic experience - both times!!!

This was an awesome experience and the food was delicious! Neha is really flexible and was understanding of us needing to change the date of our class last minute. She also provided substitutions for dietary restrictions and if we couldn’t find the correct spice.

Of course my favourite part was getting to eat the beautiful meal with my family. Neha was so well organized, and had a lot of tips and interesting knowledge and history of our recipe. The ingredients were very easy to obtain. She coached us through the food preparation from start to finish, and had lots of tips for us to. ensure the flavours were perfect. I really enjoyed the experience, and it was much easier to prepare than I imagined. Thank-you Neha!

I loved this cooking class! From the dancing to the easy-to-follow cooking steps. Neha had great tips and stories to share throughout the class. The Butter Chicken and Parantha were so good! I can't wait to get the additional recipes she offered to share.

My kids gave me this experience as a holiday gift. What terrific fun! Nehu was great. Although I have been doing Indian cooking for the past year, I am really new to the cuisine. Nehu not only guided me through 3 delicious dishes but also discussed the different regions, spices and traditions. I even bought a spice dabba after the cooking lesson. It makes using multiple spices so much easier. The food was so delicious. My kids all joined in on the meal. Everyone took pictures.

My wife and I had a great time cooking and learning with Neha over zoom. She made terrific use of the virtual format, and the food was delicious!

I absolutely loved this class. I took this class during the beginning of COVID and it was a wonderful way to connect with family living in different parts of the world and not feel so isolated. I really appreciated Neha's teaching style that was both informal and very informative. She really made Indian cooking feel much more accessible!

Neha was really warm and friendly and brought the group together well. We cooked delicious food and learnt a lot about the different regions and spices. Would recommend, would be fun to do as a group or with a partner.

Neha was really warm and chatty so not only was the cookery class informative but it was also really fun! We made some delicious slow cooked potatoes with a tasty sauce and fragrant rice. She was very clear and methodical and took her time with everyone to make sure we were keeping up over Zoom, but the class was never boring or slow. I hope to do more of her online classes as I learnt loads and want to eat her food all the time! Thank you Neha for being brilliant.

I received an e cooking experience as a birthday present and as a keen curry eater, I really loved this gift. Neha, was really helpful and gave us lots of information about spices and the history of Indian cookery as we cooked which was really interesting. It was great to meet and cook with people from all around the world and Neha kept an eye on how we were doing throughout. I would totally recommend this and a more happily going to re book another class. Both my husband and I enjoyed the cooking lesson and the food afterwards. Thank you so much Neha!

Our time as a family spent e-cooking with Neha was really wonderful. As an experience, bringing our family together to do something new, fun and tasty was a welcome change during COVID. As a host, Neha was fantastic. She is warm, knowledgeable and patient. Over the course of 2+ hours, we made delicious food and left the night with full bellies and new recipes for the future. Planning for the evening was seamless, as Neha was very responsive to emails and provided clear instructions as well as multiple meal options. We were logging in from across the world, and she still was ready to work with us at 6:00am her time. Overall, we had a wonderful night of cooking with Neha and would strongly recommend her class to others.

The virtual class with Neha was amazing! She really walked us through each step and explained the cultural significance of the ingredients. The food was absolutely amazing, and she was friendly engaged and I learned a lot.

Neha's online classes are so good, it's as if you are really there with her in her kitchen and I always learn so much from her

Neha's class was excellent. She was very patient, calm, gave lots of interesting tips and insight and was flexible when there might have been one or two ingredients missing/in different form! Most importantly the food was the tastiest and have had in a long time and I feel like I have learned new life skills! Thank you Neha!

Great virtual class! I learned alot about combining spices and flavor. Neha was engaging & fun, and course is hands on. She makes the same dishes while instructing. Loved it & cant wait to make the recipes again.

I booked an e-cook session with Neha to celebrate my birthday with friends. Neha was really helpful in the run up to the event, providing me with plenty of dishes to choose from and sending detailed information regarding the ingredients we needed to buy and the preparation we would need to do in advance. The class itself was great fun, with Neha making sure to check in with everyone. We all really enjoyed it and I will definitely be cooking those dishes again!

Neha's class is fantastic. I've always loved Indian food and it felt really special having Neha teach me how to make a couple dishes at home. She also had some interesting stories and facts along with the cooking class and it made for a memorable and fun experience.

Neha provided a list of ingredients ahead of the e-cooking event and relayed the cooking instructions via zoom in a relaxed manner. The event flowed smoothly with enough time to follow instructions and ask questions. Neha is very personable. Our dishes were a huge success and everything was delicious. We would definitely do another e-cooking event with Neha again1

Knowledgeable about cuture, regional variations, and techniques Kept tabs on each of our participants Gave us alternatives for adjusting spice levels Affable, and good sense of humor

An absolute delight! Not only an educational experience, but a legitimately joyful social occasion. Joined as part of a friend's birthday, and we all had a killer time. Plus, had leftovers the next day! LOVED it.

One of the best virtual experiences I have done thus far. We had a team event, and it's been everyone's favorite! The food was delicious; Neha was so genuine and took the time to explain everything too. I would personally retake one of her classes. Do yourself a favor and sign up today!

Loved Neha’s class. She is a wonderful teacher. We made chicken curry and garlic naan. It was so delicious! I can’t wait to take Neha’s class again.

The food was so delicious we made it again the next night and have followed the recipes over and over since our first class a few months ago. We’re finally free to book another class so we are right now! She is so easy to follow and so good and checking in to make sure your cooking is going good. So much fun. So informative, too!

I took the online cooking class and it was fantastic! Learned a lot and I Will certainly take another class.

So much fun! The class was timed perfectly. Neha is a true expert. The food was delicious -- and the Bollywood dancing at the end was a delightful addition.

I took my second Indian cooking class with Neha this weekend and she continued to be such a patient and knowledgeable host, yielding a delicious dinner. Her class was very well organized with the list of ingredients being provided a few days ahead of our virtual session. She checked in throughout the class to take everyone’s pace into consideration. And the food - the saag chicken and flavored rice was SO delicious. Had an excellent time all around, would happily do a few more sessions with Neha anytime, so glad she has a rotating menu :)

Amazing cooking class with Neha!!! Everything tasted FANTASTIC. Definitely making again. Also she was very patient with me being SO slow lol.

Fantastic cooking class. very interactive! Neha was great. she gave clear instruction and gave us some insight into her culture too

I had previously taken an in-person cooking lesson in Delhi, and was ecstatic to see these virtual lessons over the past several months. I have taken 4 virtual lesson so far, and definitely plan to do more. I was already aware of what a great instructor Neha is and how well thought out the menu is, but I am very impressed with the virtual lesson. It is very well organized and very informative. Neha does a wonderful job engaging with the class, keeping an eye on everyone's dishes, and being fully available to answer questions.

I met Neha originally in Summer 2018 in her home in New Delhi. My family and I did a fabulous cookery course and then ate the meal with her in her own home. It was our first night in India and what an amazing, authentic and warm experience it was. When we saw online classes, we had to sign up to add some more delicious authentic Indian food to our repertoire. We have done two e-classes now and each one was full of fun, lots of background info on the origins of each dish and meeting other people from around the world. I can’t recommend these sessions highly enough!! Looking forward to seeing next month’s menu choices so we can sign up again. Thanks Neha !!!

This was my first e-cook experience booked on airbandb. We cooked a chicken korma, raita and naan bread. Neha sent us a list of ingredients to buy and steps to prepare ahead of time. On the day, everything went seamlessly and the food we prepared "with' Neha was absolutely delicious. Also enjoyed the stories and conversation. Somehow managed to forget all about the heat we are having right now, covid, and all troubles. This was a wonderful class that I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone who is interested in cooking and learning about Indian food, culture and history.

This was our third time cooking online with Neha - exceptional in every way! We are learning the basics, the subtleties and the history of Indian cooking - plus getting to know Neha better from her Mom’s kitchen in the Himalayas. We met Neha in her Delhi kitchen some years ago and have followed her since - she had developed her approach to offer truly world class personal cooking classes. A must try experience..

Neha was a wonderful guide; she made our e-cooking event a true pleasure and something that I look forward to doing again!

Neha made my first virtual experience a spectacular one! She was warm, kind, and knew what she was doing. I love how she included little facts here and there about the dishes. She ensured everyone was on the same pace and periodically checked in with everyone. I never felt rushed or left behind. I will definitely book another experience with Neha again!

Such a fun experience. And the recipes were so delicious I couldn’t believe I had cooked it! Neha is a delightful and knowledgeable host. Can’t wait to do it again.

What a wonderful experience my wife and I had taking an e-cooking class taught by Neha. The class was a Father's Day gift from our daughter and she joined us remotely along with several other friendly people. Neha made the process easy and enjoyable from start to finish. She was informative, patient, and helpful throughout the class.she included much cultural information regarding the dishes we cooked and their origin. she seemed to genuinely enjoy teaching Indian cooking. We look forward to taking more classes with Neha and highly recommend others to as well.

Neha's e-cooking class was wonderful. She wasn't rushed which allowed participants to keep up with her pace. Her use of multiple cameras was really helpful in order to see the meal coming together on the cooktop. She even "checked in" on our own dishes to give recommendations. Really fun and educational experience.

Neha is an amazing virtual host! She made the experience customized to each of us. She explained every step of the way, repeating the instructions to make sure we stayed with her. She had two cameras, one on the dishes and one on her which made the learning experience fantastic! If any of us were missing any ingredients and needed a substitute, she had an answer ready for each ingredient. At the end of the session she even brought us outside to show us the beautiful view! Such a great experience from Neha! I would highly recommend this experience to any chef, beginner to advanced!

We just did an Indian e cooking class with Neha, it was a fun way to learn cooking techniques from the comfort and safety of our own kitchen. The food was delicious and the experience delightful. She was a superb instructor ensuring that we were able to follow her techniques and she showed us her beautiful surroundings in the Himalayan region at the end of the class.

Neha is wonderfull. Even though we were in different countries I really felt a connection. Gave the e-cook class to my friend for her 30th birthday and it was a really special evening in these times of selfisolation.

Cooking with Neha felt like cooking with a friend, a very patient friend :) I made THE MOST DELICIOUS meal from home during one of her e-cooking classes and while the cooking time was fun and informative, the end meal was authentic and amazing. My family loved it. I recommend Saffron Palate 100% if you want to learn the real deal of Indian cooking with an experienced chef and instructor. Thank you Neha!

Oh my goodness , I really felt that I was cooking with a friend, Neha was so knowledgeable and so relaxed , making sure that we were all able to join in , even when I made mistakes , Neha took it all in her stride and nothing was a problem . The food was the best I have ever made , so full of flavour and Neha too away some of the mystery away of using spices and I feel far more confident trying new recipes now .

Loved being able to cook with my daughter for Mother’s Day. The experience was great and interaction amazing
