Currysutra® (meaning, “the art + love of spices”)
my cherished creation established in 2003 is a holistic accumulation of my 25+ years of teaching cooking classes geared towards plant-based foods and the medicinal and aphrodisiac benefits of Indian spices. My journey in learning Indian cooking that I “inherited” from my parents naturally permeated in a subsequent focus in other cuisines such as Italian, Mediterranean, Asian, and South American foods. Along the way, I have had the pleasure of meeting celebrity chefs, writing recipes for local various publications in my hometowns (Minneapolis, MN and San Carlos, CA), and competing in national culinary competitions. One day, I will complete my desire to author a cookbook encapsulating my experiences with Currysutra®.

I currently contribute to NBC’s CA Live Cooking segments and have been running my cooking school (formerly known as 'Explore Culinary Arts') for corporate teams in Silicon Valley’s Bay Area since 2016. We recently celebrated our 8th anniversary as a small business! At Currysutra®, we combine culinary creativity with a sense of community through engaging cooking classes, delightful private dining experiences, and unforgettable team-building events, all crafted to nurture your passion for food and connection!
