Parkash is a natural teacher.
She has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Indian food and spices and I learned so much more than just how to cook while I watched her videos. I loved how Parkash kept everything simple. She provided clear instructions including ingredients and utensils necessary so I felt well prepared prior to starting each recipe. She is always positive and encouraging.
The course itself is easy to use and watch. I’m not a computer genius but this online course is very user friendly. Each module is clear and concise with great hands on demonstrations from start to finish. I loved that I could download supporting materials such as the recipe and shopping list ahead of time. The nutritional fact sheets are such a bonus too.
It is obvious that Parkash has found her passion. She has kept everything simple without sacrificing flavour or nutrition. Each module was incredibly easy to navigate through and every recipe was dripping in flavour. Parkash has definitely taken the fear out of Indian cooking and I am excited about cooking more spice inspired Indian foods!

Parkash's cooking classes are not only about Indian cooking!
I received so much nutritional information that I truly appreciate as it helps me to eat healthier and to understand the importance of the nutritional value in foods and how I can apply this to my daily life.
Watching a tutorial on the layout of an Indian grocery store, along with detailed information on the different types of beans and rice was invaluable! This will make my shopping much more simpler and not so overwhelming. I also enjoyed learning the origins of the different food products.
All this bonus information in addition to the detailed videos of cooking Indian food! After watching the videos, I am ready to start cooking Indian food as it no longer seems so daunting and I look forward to the scents that I can already imagine!

I love how the course is broken down, and the variety of videos there are!
As both a vegetarian and a lover of Indian cuisine, Spice Inspired Kitchen was the perfect course to kickstart my foray into a new type of cooking! Parkash taught all the recipes with ease, and everything looked delicious. She answered my questions as I went through the lessons promptly, so that I did not lose my train of thought or inspiration for the dish I was attempting. I love how the course is broken down, and the variety of videos there are! The videos where she gave us some context and history to the dishes and ingredients were some of my favourites - she is a natural at making the viewer feel included in the whole process. I cannot wait to try many more of the recipes, and improve my Indian cooking even more!

Parkash, thank you for bringing the authentic Indian supermarket to my home.
I cannot believe all of the information I am learning even being of east Indian descent. A few months ago, I bought a package of mango powder and have been wondering what to use it in... after this video, I will wonder no more as I will bring it to life once it meets the pakoras.

Even though I have been cooking Indian food for years you provided many useful tips which were helpful and I look forward to trying those recipes.
As someone who has helped create online courses in the educational field I am aware of the amount of hours it takes to create an online course of this caliber. Your course was easy to navigate and user friendly. The material was laid out in an easy to follow format. I appreciated learning about the health benefits of the various ingredients used in the recipes. During the video lessons you adjusted the recipe as you were cooking which was very helpful and made the video "authentic". Even though I have been cooking Indian food for years you provided many useful tips which were helpful and I look forward to trying those recipes. Pakoras especially are difficult to make, but it all seems very doable in the step by step video. I look forward to making them soon and surprising my family.

The Spice Inspired Kitchen, Indian Cuisine 101 for Vegetarian Food Lovers has inspired me so much into taking action on learning how to make healthy Indian food at home. The video tutorials are so easy to follow yet jam packed with great information. I also love the nutritional advice which Parkash provides as she demonstrates how to cook a particular Indian dish.
As for the “look and feel” of the course, it is very professional, easy to navigate around and very beautiful to look at. I've already told loads of my friends and family about this and I would highly recommend for anyone reading this to jump right in and get inspired by this course. You will be so happy you did.

You really have simplified it.
I have just finished watching all the introduction session. You have provided some very useful information as to where to buy indian spices and ingredients. This can be a daunting task for anyone new to indian cooking. You really have simplified it. A great introduction to the course.

Parkash is a beautiful guide through the process of sourcing, selecting and creating your very own Indian dishes.
If you're like me, Indian dishes are among my very favorite. But, when it comes to creating my own homemade Indian dishes, I must admit, it intimidates me. The ingredients, the processes, the names of everything… it's enough to keep me from making my own at home on a regular basis like I would love to, especially for date nights. Spice inspired Kitchen has already brought me so much more clarity, appreciation, and confidence as I continue on my road to creating my own Indian dishes. Parkash is a beautiful guide through the process of sourcing, selecting and creating your very own Indian dishes to satisfy that craving for the luscious flavors of Indian cuisine for vegetarian food lovers. Grab this course and enjoy getting to know Parkash!

Thank you for demystifying the Indian supermarket!
I always wondered how Indian restaurants made such delicious white rice, and now I know! Thank you for the tip about the quick saute for the onion at the beginning— the pointers that you offer make that extra difference for my cooking! And thank you for demystifying the Indian supermarket! I no longer feel intimidated about going shopping for basmati rice or chick pea flour, and am now looking forward to checking out the variety!

The course is well organized and simple to follow.
The course is well organized and simple to follow, especially with the step by step videos, and checklists. The recipes are mostly favorites that people like to order in restaurants and can now make at home for family and friends. Along with the recipes Parkash gives nutritional and historical information that is very interesting and ‘food for thought’.

I love all the little tidbits you add to each of the modules.
Parkash, your recipes and step by step teaching methods have inspired me to cook again and I can't wait to try the lemon aroma-full rice. I love all the little tidbits you add to each of the modules, thank you!
