A Surprise Birthday Party: Indian Style Feast

November 7, 2019 May Fridel

We recently had a fabulous private cooking event where we hosted a special birthday party. The theme was a Classic Indian Style Feast, and we curated a menu based on the birthday girl’s favorites.

The menu that we came up with, included Tandoori Shrimp, Roasted Corn Tikki with Mint Chutney, Spinach Tahiri, Lamb Rogan Josh, and Cucumber Raita.

The guests arrived early to give the birthday girl a pleasant surprise for her special day. She was so touched by her husband’s choice of celebrating her birthday by cooking with friends. The menu choice made it even better to her, since Indian cuisine is her favorite type of food.

The party started with Butternut Squash Soup Shots and a Tandoori Shrimp appetizer, which was paired with a German Riesling wine. Afterwards, the group was invited into the kitchen where the chef explained the menu and divided them into teams to make the full course of the Indian Feast together. May Fridel gave them a lesson on how to use spices, including how to roast cumin and how to mix up spices to make a masala. The Lemon Flavored Panna Cotta Topped with Blackberries was a perfect palate cleanser, and was a great dessert to finish the meal. All in all, it was a joyful evening, and it created a special memory for the birthday girl.
