Let's Make Simple Meals Right from Your Kitchen and Enjoy!

From 13.6 C$ /h

Even though I have known how to cook basic foods for years now thanks to my late mother and elder sister; the kitchen has become my favorite part of my home. Since the start of lockdown, I spent a lot more time in the kitchen and got into the habit of trying new recipes. One thing about me is that as much as I can be attracted to the recipes I come across on TikTok, YouTube, in a cookbook, or from my news updates; I will only use what I know I can afford and what I have available to me in the pantry or fridge.
I love making different sandwiches (normal or grilled) with brown bread or whole wheat bread only; pasta dishes like lasagna, mac/ spaghetti & mince; dumpling made from store-bought dough and beef shin or chuck; any quick and easy meals that can be made from chicken breast fillets; salad dressings; and even smoothies! For those (like myself) who have a sweet tooth, I have recently gotten into baking a little bit here and there, and I also love a good trifle, pancake or sponge cake.
As I have mentioned, the idea is to keep the meals simple if you want a quick lunch, dinner, or breakfast idea for yourself or several people. You will get the chance to see just how so much can be made from a chicken breast fillet to an egg or two!

About Me

I am a very approachable, patient and understanding lady with a sense of humor. Being in the kitchen and cooking or baking is therapeutic. I enjoy it as much as I enjoy yoga, running errands, playing with my dogs or watching movies!

I have made my fair share of mistakes in the kitchen like burning wors or adding too much seasoning to the meat, but I know what to do the next time because I know it's not the end of the world. Having a dad who has to watch his health, I do my best to not only cook up a storm in the kitchen, but to be very aware of which oils I use and how much salt or seasoning I use. I love to mix things up from cooking basic meals like chicken and rice, to lasagna, fish and veggies, and the occasional home-made burger and chips because I believe in rewards!

I would love to help people who enjoy cooking or who would love to develop their skills in the kitchen. I am not perfect, as I am also still in the process of experimenting in the kitchen, but whatever I am good at making, I am more than happy to help the next person become a chef of their own.

Education

I attended the St Dominic's Catholic School for Girls all from pre-school to high school and matriculated there. I then attended the University of Johannesburg from 2018 - 2021 and obtained my BA degree in Psychology followed by my BA (Honours) in Psychology.

Experience / Qualifications

I have tutored over 100 third year psychology students during each semester via online platforms. For this, I earned my certificate for Level 1 tutoring. In terms of cooking, I have shared meal prep and recipe content with several contacts.

Indian cooking is a vast collection of culinary traditions passed on from generations. In this class I aim to share these traditions and values to create a wide array of lip smacking Indian dishes from various regions of India.

You can choose to do an online session, an in person workshop at your place or mine. I would however highly recommend visiting an Indian household. This wouldn't be a typical workshop or a class. Come to our place and enjoy an evening, cooking delicious Indian food, sharing stories and culture.

We can decide in advance if there is any specific dish you would like to learn or customize the menu as per your taste.

On the day of the class we will cook together, chat and relish the meal that we have made together.
