Learn to cook Sri Lankan food!

Hi everyone. Sarogini is back with more great cooking classes for January and February 2010.

Stay tuned for a new-look website and some exciting improvements!

If you want to cook something different for your next dinner party or the family meal, try some of the delicious recipes from Sri Lankan cooking expert Sarogini Kamalanathan.

Or, if you prefer, come along to one of Sarogini’s intimate cooking classes, held in her Perth home, for a taste of Sri Lankan magic.

Sri Lankan food is a dazzling meld of a multitude of cultures and influences, from Arab and Moor traders to southern Indian, Portuguese, Dutch and English styles.

Using only the freshest ingredients, herbs and spices, Sarogini’s easy-to-follow recipes are perfect for bringing a touch of south-east Asia to your dinner table, wherever you are.

All this and more is available at www.srilankafood.net.

Sarogini Kamalanathan.

My name is Sarogini Kamalanathan, and I have been teaching people how to cook Sri Lankan food and cuisine since 1974.

Cooking classes

I love to bring aromatic and tasteful dishes such as curries and hoppers into Australian kitchens and dining rooms through my cooking classes. Please join me in my home kitchen to learn how to cook Sri Lankan food.

My classes last for two and a half hours. During this time I will teach you where to get the best ingredients and show you how to prepare the dishes.

You (and five other members of each class) will also get to share a generous portion of each dish and chilled soft drinks, so please don’t eat dinner before coming to my class! You will leave with fond memories, complete recipes for the dishes we cook and a burning desire to cook Sri Lankan food for your friends and family.

To all our friends worldwide on the Net who can’t make it to Sarogini’s classes in person – try her great recipes and Sarogini is more than happy to answer your questions via email.

NEW! Gift vouchers are now available for my courses. Email me or phone (08) 9337 1725 for more details.
