Crafting Curries

Crafting Curries Crafting Curries is all about learning to cook authentic Indian food, that is delicious and healthy.

Enjoying home-cooked flavours and diverse dishes available in the Indian cuisine is what you will experience in my kitchen. Hi, My name is Cathy, born and raised across the length and breadth of this vast country, India, and have my roots in Kerala, South India. My biggest influence, were my mother and my grandmother who created spectacular and flavorsome food that I grew up with. I got to cooking at a very young age as I stood and watched them creat magic in the kitchen. I picked up tips and well guarded secrets as I assisted them. It was my hobby to collect favourite family recipes, magazine cut outs of traditional recipes and made my very own collection, experimenting all the time. My previous profession as a trainer and a teacher, merged with my passion with cooking lead to the birth of Crafting Curries. My mission is to share the art of Indian cooking, showcasing its wide variety and helping others to cook authentic Indian food using fresh produce (mostly organic), exotic spices, and local ingredients.

What if one crunch could capture the taste of Kerala?

I’m Cathy George teacher chef and founder of CC from Peterborough,Cambridgeshire.

For the past 9 years I’ve been conducting hands-on Indian cooking classes, Supperclubs, private dining experiences and demos dedicated to imparting life skills to adults and school children in my community. I encourage cooking from scratch, celebrating traditional flavours, local and seasonal produce, and showing how delicious food can also be sustainable with minimal waste.

Food has always been my way of bringing people together—whether around a Supperclub table or in a cookery class where strangers leave as friends, feeling connected.
It’s a great opportunity to share my stories, culture and hospitality with my guests.

As I begin my 10 th year in Crafting Curries I'm eager to learn how to translate bold, heritage flavours into products and experiences that resonate with new modern and wider audiences. I’m applying for the kettle Khoo Academy 2026 to have the incredible opportunity to be mentored by industry experts and leaders in the field Rachelkoo and the team at

My dream gourmet KETTLE® chip flavour would be
Kerala Chamanthi Podi—a roasted coconut spice blend that’s warm, nutty, sweet and tangy all at once.
It has a punch from the very first crunch. It’s a flavour that’ll make you stretch your hand for more. I’d love to see that story brought to life in a gourmet chips
