Samosas & Coriander Chutney Class

Samosas: You’ll find them wherever exquisite Indian food is being served, from family tables to sizzling food carts on New Delhi street corners and the most elegant restaurants. While there are many versions of the South Asian delicacy, the quintessential recipe calls for a masterful blend of potato and spices cooked in flaky pastry with a side of emerald-hued coriander chutney—and that’s exactly how you’ll learn to make the iconic dish in this live virtual class with Delhi native Chef JD.

• First, JD will show you how to prepare the delicate dough; while it’s resting, you’ll blend potatoes and seasonings into a flavorful vegetarian filling (that’s easy to make vegan) and JD will share expert tips on ways to incorporate Indian flavors into your cooking.
• Next, you’ll learn the secrets to transforming pastry and filling into those classic samosa triangles, with JD showing you how to deep-fry the pillowy pockets to golden-crisp perfection (he’ll also explain some alternate cooking methods, like baking and air-frying).
• While your samosas cool, you’ll combine fresh coriander and chilies into a brilliant sauce to serve alongside your creations.
• Along the way, JD will answer your questions and share stories of growing up and learning to cook in a family that’s been part of Delhi’s restaurant scene for more than half a century.
