Apply for this course

During this course you will learn how to cook a variety of simple Indian dishes using simple basic ingredients, herbs and spices. Dishes will include stir fry noodles, traditional style dumplings and rice wraps (spring rolls).

Over the course you will develop your culinary skills, wowing your family and friends with the delights of a real-life Indian home kitchen. Classic Indian flavours are all about spice blends and this is where you’ll start. You’ll be introduced to a range of everyday spices, you’ll learn what and how to buy basic ingredients, and what to keep in your pantry. You’ll learn how to cook multiple dishes – from savoury classic snacks like samosas and pakoras, to specialist breads, to main dishes like lentils, beans and vegetable curries.

This fun, easy course needs your commitment to learn. You’ll have endless tips and hacks for replicating these traditional dishes for yourself at home. Your teacher has 60 years of home-cooking experience behind her, and more than 20 years of teaching in Oxfordshire. Her dedication to spreading Indian vegetarian food led her to start up her own food brand with her family ‘Holy Cow’ curry sauces.

Courses offered by the college are fully or partly funded by the Government and the published fee takes account of this funding.

Before starting a course, the College is required to check you meet conditions relating to that funding, e.g. age, residency status within the UK/EEA, prior qualification level and employment status. In some circumstances (such as with online enrolments), these checks can only be completed after you have enrolled and paid.

If you are unable to pay in full for this course at the time of enrolment, and the course tuition fee is £300 or more, an instalment plan is available. If this is your preference, please do not enrol online but rather call the Admissions Team on 01235 216400 to enrol.

Once enrolled, Admissions will take the first instalment payment from you and pass on your details to the Finance team who will email you to set-up your payment plan. Please return a fully completed instalment plan to Finance as failure to do so could result in being withdrawn from your course.
