Amazing vegan cooking class - Edit
We're just back from our cooking class with Priya. We were a group of 12 people and were taught how to make different curries, how to cook rice and how to make roti and papadam. Afterwards, we got to eat it all, and everything was so delicious! Also, it's very cheap (3.500 Rs/p.) considering everything you get :)

Great experience with delicious food - Edit
If you’re thinking about signing up for a cooking class with Prius, do it! The food we made wasnt too complex (will be easy to replicate at home) and so delicious (especially the eggplant curry!). Priya is also so lovely and the classes are so affordable.

Amazing experience, great food - Edit
Priya’s cooking class was amazing, showcasing how to create beautiful authentic sri lankan dishes. We created so many lovely curries (dhal, mango curry, green bean curry, carrot curry) coconut sambal, aubergine salad, rice and poppadoms.
Read morePriya was so knowledgeable about the cooking methods, ingredients and their benefits and sent us the recipes to recreate them at home.
Overall loved this experience, meeting other like minded people and the yummy food - will deffos be trying these recipes when i get back to the UK!
It was also incredible value for money - c. £7 per adult (half price for children 12 and under) for the experience and allllll that food

Vegan cooking class in Ella - Edit
At only 3000 rupees this class in excellent value, especially given the price of food and accommodation in Ella. A small group class, so everyone gets to be involved and Priya creates a convivial atmosphere.

Class act - Edit
Priya is a wonderful chef who isn’t only an expert at cooking but also a fantastic teacher.
Read moreWe were quite a large group of people but she involved everyone in the preparation process. We made several curries and dishes (pineapple, bean, beetroot, squash based, dhal, coconut roti, eggplant salad). Everything was explained clearly and at the end of the cooking class we all sat down for a lovely meal. Priya sent us the recipes directly after the class.
I would recommend this class to everyone in Ella. It is only 3000 Sri Lankan rupees and you get a wonderful experience and meal (:

Great local cooking class - Edit
This cooking class is super to follow. Priya is very very nice and explains well what she is doing. At the end you get the recipe's, so you can try at home as well.

Fun cooking class and delicious food - Edit
We did the cooking class with Priya today, and we absolutely loved it. Priya was very kind and patient and explained everything clearly. We made a few different curries, a salad, coconut roti and sambol. All were delicious and also important; everything was vegan. Would definitely recommend this experience.

Viel gelernt - Edit
Es hat Spaß gemacht, zu kochen. Prija erklärt sehr gut. Wir haben 5 Currys, Rotti und Auberginen-Salat gekocht und alles hat wirklich super geschmeckt. Allerdings gibt es auch einen Kritikpunkt:
Read moreAnscheinend verliert sie den Überblick bei den Buchungen. Wir waren 12 Personen, mehr passten nicht an den Tisch. Weitere 2, die ein paar Minuten später kamen, wurden wieder weggeschickt, obwohl sie reserviert hatten.

You learn a lot and make great dishes - Edit
I took the class last night and really enjoyed it. We made four curries: pineapple, green beans, pumpkin, and Dahl, and then we also made rice, coconut sambal, roti, and poppadoms. For all the food and the class you only pay 2500, it's a great deal. Priya is very sweet and explains everything well while directing everyone to chip in and try spicing the dishes or kneading the roti. After eating Sri Lankan food for weeks it's super nice to finally have an idea of how to make it myself. Definitely recommend this experience

Amazing recipes! - Edit
Priya’s amazing cooking class shows just how easy amazing food can be to make. With everything made from scratch, Priya guides you through 9 dishes each as delicious as the last. Will be recommending this to all my friends that travel to Sri Lanka as a must do!

AMAZING! - Edit
With Priya I had one of the most wonderful nights of my trip in Sri Lanka. Priya is such a nice lady and shows you how to cook so many different curries while she really lets you participate in the cooking process and answers all questions. The dishes were all vegan, sooo tasty and you even get the recipe book afterwards. Absolute recommendation!
