Namaste,

I'm Chitra the proud owner and instructor of Krisha Indian Cooking School, a homemaker, wife and mom from Guelph. My vision is to inspire easy, healthy and economical home-style Indian cooking with just a few simple ingredients. I have been teaching Indian cooking classes at the Guelph Continuing Education since 2009 and have had amazing feedback from participants all around.

I offer cooking classes at the Puslinch Community Centre and cooking parties at your home. Read on if you want to learn more about our history.

Ever wondered what makes Indian food so delicious? You can read about it in our FAQ.

​Our June 22nd in-person class has been cancelled so our in-person classes will resume in the fall! We will still be offering virtual group classes based on popularity and demand. Please get in touch with us if you'd like to plan an in-person cooking party or customized virtual class and we will consider it on a case by case basis.

Our Favourite Indian Dishes in-person class on June 22nd will be the last one before our summer long break, so be sure to sign up! We take a break from group classes for the summer and usually resume in the fall.
On April 21, we were lucky enough to do a livestream class at the Anita Stewart Food Lab of the University of Guelph for their YouTube channel. We had so much fun cooking peas pulao and coconut chickpea curry, while sharing a little bit of knowledge about South Indian food and culture!

Watch the Deep Dish Dialogues with Chitra Saravanan at the Anita Stewart Memorial Food Laboratory.
