Indian Cooking Class
Menu of this month : Murg Makhni
Demystifying a glocal (= globally local) favorite!
Necessity is truly the mother of invention. Tandoori chicken became the Butter Chicken or Murg Makhni we all know and love today because one hungry customer wanted a curry with his chicken at The Moti Mahal restaurant in New Delhi. Not wanting to disappoint their customer, the chefs hurriedly created a gravy with ingredients they had at hand - tomatoes, butter, spices and cream. Since then (1950), it has traversed the globe and has had many reincarnations. What you will learn in this workshop is a version that is tasty, light and one which can be made with simple Indian pantry ingredients at home. This versatile recipe can be used to make butter Paneer or Tofu. We will pair it with a fragrant Jeera Rice (Rice tempered with cumin, cashews and herbs), Spinach Raita (similar to a tzatziki using spinach instead of cucumber) and kachumber salad (a medley of vegetables with an exciting yet simple dressing).

| The Seorae Global Village Center is part of a network of information and welcome centers for foreigners located in neighborhoods across Seoul where many foreign residents tend to reside. The opening of these centers was an initiative of the city of Seoul in 2008 with the mission to provide practical information about living in Korea so that foreign residents find the day-to-day management easy. Our primary role is to answer questions that pertain to daily life and to help manage situations where the language barrier becomes an issue. You will find at the center Korean language programs as well as other cultural and artistic lessons to learn and appreciate the multiple facts of the Korean culture. We hope that this will help you create new encounters and discoveries. Please visit our website for more information about what's happening this month. |
