Nepalin kokkauskurssi & momojen valmistus noudolla Kathmandussa

前日に予約して参加しました！9時現地集合でしたので15分前に行きましたが、あれ？空いてない。一抹の不安がよぎりましたが5分前位にスタッフが来て案内してもらいました。ほっ。マサラミルクティーを入れてもらい少しゆっくりしていると、作るメニュー3品を選ぶとのことで私達を含めた今日の参加者4人で相談しながらチョイス。決まると全員で近くのお店に買出しに出かけました。きのこ、じゃがいも、にんじん、コリアンダーなどなど。地元の人たちが買いにくるお店でネパールの食材を見学するのは面白かったです。料理は手際よく担当を振り分けられ、野菜を切ったり、炒めたり、モモの皮を小麦粉から捏ねたりをレシピの説明を聞きながら進みました。最初に完成した2品(じゃがいも料理ときのこ料理)を食べた後、いよいよモモ作りです。具を作り、手作りの皮で包んでいきます。これがなかなか難しい😓トルコからの男性はパティシエのお仕事をしているとのことでとても綺麗な仕上がりで感心しました。イギリスからの14日間マナスルトレッキングに参加してきたという男性は、初めての体験で苦戦。私達も苦戦しながら包み終えました。15分ほど蒸して出来立てを食べました。ネパール滞在中に食べたモモの中で一番美味しかったです♪ 12時20分頃には食べ終えて、適宜解散。お料理の説明や進め方は段取り良く楽しかったです。でも、ゆる〜く始まってゆる〜く終わるのはお国柄でしょうか。それもネパールの文化体験ですね。時間がある方にはお勧めです！

送迎はなかったです。メニューを選べて生徒が2人だったのでとてもアットホームな空間で質問しやすかったです。シェフはお若くとてもお仕事が捌けており説明もわかりやすかったです。料理もとても美味しかったです。ありがとうございました。

I love it, i enjoy it.Both chef are amazing, knowledgeable of what they are doing/ very professional, and most of all very friendly. I love them. 😍 thank you.

Nash and Vikram are so nice and polite. They are both great cooks and teachers. We enjoyed the class a lot and the food we helped cook turned out so good. The kitchen and the whole place were very clean. Keep up the good work! :) A warning is you should not have a big meal before the class cos the food portion will be big enough for the whole day!!!

Ohjaaja oli hauska ja kärsivällinen, ja hän antoi paljon selityksiä, jotka auttoivat ymmärtämään aitoa nepalilaista keittiötä paremmin. Minulla oli todella hauskaa!

I recently attended a cooking class and it was truly an exceptional experience! From the moment we arrived, Chef Bikram and Instructor Kamal made us feel welcome and excited to learn. Their expertise and passion for Nepali cuisine were evident at every step of the process. We started with making momos, where Chef Bikram guided us through the intricate folding techniques and shared helpful tips for perfecting the filling. It was a hands-on experience, and Chef Bikram’s friendly demeanor made it easy to follow along. After mastering the momos, we moved on to preparing dal bhat, one of Nepal’s most beloved traditional meals. Instructor Kamal was incredibly patient and thorough, teaching us how to balance the spices and create the perfect lentil soup and rice combination. The class was not only informative but also a lot of fun! Chef Bikram and Kamal were both enthusiastic and engaging, sharing stories about Nepali culture and cuisine along the way. By the end of the session, we felt like we had truly learned the art of Nepali cooking, and the delicious meals we prepared were a testament to their fantastic teaching. I highly recommend the Kathmandu Cooking Academy to anyone looking to immerse themselves in Nepali food culture. Chef Bikram and Instructor Kamal are incredibly talented, and their passion for cooking makes this experience unforgettable. Don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity!

Nishma was very friendly and helpful in teaching us. I especially enjoyed the conversations we had. The food was really good too. I loveee the tomato sauce made, the fried lentil was good and the momo was yumsss

モモやチャタマリなどネパール料理を美味しく作ることができてよかった。とても良い経験になりました。日本に帰ったらチャレンジしてみたいです。

It was a fun experience! Definitely recommend to get this class to know more about select Nepali dishes and meet new friends. Nishma and Sajin were both engaging and very helpful. The kitchen is clean, well equipped, and had enough space for 7 of students. Their organizer is also responsive to queries and requests.

I had a wonderful time at the cooking school and was completely satisfied. The teacher was a young woman, not only skilled in cooking but also delightful in conversation, which made it a memorable experience in Kathmandu. Participants choose an appetizer, main dish, and dessert, then go shopping at a nearby market. This time we made momo, rolling the dough, filling, and steaming them ourselves. The momo we made tasted even better than the ones I had at a restaurant the day before. The teacher speaks Nepali, Hindi, and English, and even though I am not good at English, I was still able to fully enjoy the lesson. Recipes can be downloaded online, so there is no need to take detailed notes—you can simply focus on cooking. The school was easy to find with a sign outside. Just enter through the gate, pass through the building, and go up to the second floor. I look forward to seeing the continued success of the cooking school. Thank you very much.
