Cooking class

Every Tuesday we have the opportunity to go to a cooking class in the retreat kitchen taught by our beloved cook Mohan.Today he showed us how to make coconut chutney (fresh ground coconut, roasted chickpeas, chile, cumin seeds and fresh cilantro, buzzed with a little hot water in a handy chopper, we have this every morning to put on pancakes or dosas), dosas, and a pancake called uttapon. Mohan puts out great food 3 times daily from his tiny kitchen and 4 burner stove. It is all very low tech. Many of the dishes are cooked using a pressure cooker. Bonus..when we leave we get a copy of the retreat cookbook so we can continue the deliciousness. So good.
