Last Saturday we hosted our 5 course Rajasthani themed feast supper club at The Spice Club. Our intent was to showcase to our guests what true Rajasthani food is all about. Rajasthan is a state in the North-West of India. It translates as “Land of the Kings” and is known for it’s majestic palaces, history, rich culture and (most importantly for me) it’s mouth-watering cuisine. My Mum was born and brought up there and so I feel blessed that thanks to regular visits I have been exposed to all the wonderful aspects that this beautiful region has to offer.
In the weeks preceding our supper club, Ma and I sat down and created our 5 course menu, consisting of Rajasthani classics and new dishes with our own take on them including Basil Lassi, Pyaaz Kachori, Pakora Kadhi, Besan Aloo and a mango dessert made from home-made kulfi, crumbled gulab jamun and a saffron and rose infused sweet yoghurt. (In essence, a feast of deliciousness!).
We had a blast hosting our supper club last Saturday and as always it was lovely to see some familiar and new faces grace our tables. Conversation flowed between guests who originally had never met but found themselves exchanging a plethora of stories other over dinner and many even shared contact information agreeing that “we must do this again”.

We received some great feedback from our guests and thoroughly enjoyed hosting this very special evening at The Spice Club. Our July and August event dates will be posted shortly, so make sure to stay posted to our upcoming events page.
