Balinese Vegan Cooking Class with Fresh Harvesting & Garden Tour

Amazing cooking class with Asthary and her assistant. Very nice tour of the garden, and the explanations during the cooking class were easy to follow. Very interesting to explore ourselves Balinese cuisine, and we will for sure redo it at home as the dishes were delicious but not that difficult. Thanks again.

This cooking class one of the highlights of our time in Sidemen. The experience began with a tour of the organic farm, where we picked many of the fresh ingredients we'd be using before returning to the kitchen to prepare everything from scratch. We learned how to make bumbu, the traditional Balinese spice paste that forms the base of so many dishes, and used it to create a delicious selection of food. We made an appetiser, a comforting soup, tomato sauce, battered aubergine, sweet potato, tempeh and soy, and finished with dadar gulung for dessert. Leny and Padma were knowledgeable, patient, and friendly, explaining each step and sharing the stories behind the ingredients and recipes. Although we're not vegan, every dish was packed with flavour and proved that Balinese vegan food can be incredibly varied and satisfying. We'll definitely be recreating these recipes at home. A fantastic experience that I'd highly recommend.

This is a beautiful place tucked away in Sidemen Bali. Fabulous Balinese Vegan cooking class where the organic garden is where the food comes from.

The cooking class was such a great experience from the pristine setting, the welcoming and informative staff to the exquisite feast at the end. We picked our organic ingredients direct from the surrounding gardens and learned so much along the way. Prepping and cooking was so much fun and the outcome … the best Balinese food I have ever eaten.

When I was planning my birthday trip to Bali with my mom, I knew I wanted to experience a vegan Balinese cooking class. When I found this tour, I knew it was perfect for me. I love that it is on an organic farm, and we were able to pick our own ingredients before cooking. We felt relaxed and one with nature. Everyone we interacted with was very friendly. Even though my mom isn’t a vegan, we both enjoyed every minute of our beautiful experience. All the food was delicious, and we loved learning about Balinese cuisine while helping to prepare our own meals!!! This is a must-do for someone who loves nature, learning about other cultures, and eating healthy, delicious food!! We didn’t want to leave!!! Thank you, Anandinii Organic Garden and Kitchen!! We are already sharing our incredible experiences.
