Mastercard Taste Club presents Ananda Spice Masterclass & Lunch

Ananda is Ireland’s finest Indian restaurant. Bold, innovative cuisine meets authentic flavours, using local produce, distilled to define the true essence of India. We are delighted to announce this fantastic taste experience in Ananda of a spice masterclass and lunch.  

A man and a woman are preparing food in a kitchen.
The culinary approach in Ananda is adventurous and thought provoking with classic dishes reinterpreted without losing their authenticity, but highlighting their trademark of limitless imagination. The philosophy is to innovate, experiment, push boundaries while constantly challenging perceptions, creating something that is truly game changing. Chefs Sundeep and Karan pay tribute to both local Irish produce and the hoary traditions of Indian Cuisine.  

In this exciting masterclass, you will learn about the true basis of every Indian dish – spice. Starting at 12.30pm, guests will be greeted with a small glass of Chai and Indian street food bites. Guests will then be brought through a myriad of spices and their uses, how each spice should be used and how to blend them. Also an informative talk on different culinary regions of India and the geographical, religious and social aspects influencing dishes, classic and rare spices and the science of using them and classic cooking techniques. 

After learning, watching and preparing the dishes, the class is concluded with a tantalising lunch in the restaurant.  

This truly amazing Taste Club experience is an authentic glimpse into Ananda's ethos and Indian food. This masterclass normally costs €75 pp, but as part of the MasterCard Taste Club series, tickets are discounted at €50 pp.
