An absolute highlight of our trip! This cooking class was truly one of the most memorable experiences during our time in Bali. It was incredibly interesting to learn about traditional Balinese dishes and to prepare them ourselves with such great guidance. The visit to the local market at the beginning was a wonderful way to start the day — so fascinating and full of new impressions. Every single staff member was kind, welcoming, and made us feel completely at ease. It was a beautiful morning filled with laughter, delicious food, and cultural insight. I can wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Bali!

Immensely enjoyed the cooking class in the evening with my partner, to which we both agreed it was a very interesting and tasty cooking class. From learning each of the ingredients and seeing them grown on the land, to actually using that knowledge to cook our meals themselves was perfect. Would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to learning more about the local dishes and cooking experience.

Full description

Learn to cook authentic Balinese food at a cooking class in Bali, and experience a different side to the island rarely encountered by tourists. Meet the friendly locals and take a tour of a local market where they start their day early in the morning buying and selling their daily ingredients.

Journey to the cooking school at an organic farm. Get a welcome coffee or tea and a light breakfast on arrival, and then take a tour of the premises. Learn how a Balinese family makes use of the natural resources surrounding them, as you collect some vegetables for your class.

Get an introduction to your chef, who will ensure everything runs smoothly throughout your class. Then, prepare a menu (regular or vegetarian) to enjoy at the end of the class.

Regular Menu:
Prepare the dishes for a regular meal, including a Base Gede (traditional spice paste) and Sayur Urab (mixed green salad with coconut and spices). Then, learn the secrets of Opor Ayam (Balinese chicken curry) and sate lilit (traditional kebab made with meat, coconut and spices paste). Prepare a pindang base tomat (fish with tomato sauce) and tempe asam manis (sweet sour tempe), along with pisang goreng or bubur injin (banana fritters with coconut and palm sugar syrup or black rice puding) for dessert.

Vegetarian Menu:
Cook a vegetarian meal, starting with a Base Gede (traditional spice paste), and then follow by making an authentic gado gado (blanched vegetables with traditional peanut sauce) along with an opor tempe (Balinese tempe curry) and bergedel (fried corn with Balinese spices). Discover the secrets of tempe asam manis (sweet and sour tempe) and vegan sate lilit (traditional kebab made with jackfruit and spices paste). End by making pisang goreng or bubur injin (banana fritters with coconut and palm sugar syrup or black rice puding) for dessert.
