Passionate about plant-based cooking and eager to preserve and share her Indian culinary heritage, Natasha Tourabi co-authored Cuisine Indienne Vegan (Vegan Indian Cooking | Solar Editions, “En cuisine avec Marie Laforêt” collection) with her mother, Yasmine.
After more than 10 years of sharing thoughtful, eco-conscious, flavorful, and spice-filled content on her blog, she now invites you to discover, in person, an authentic, home-style Indian plant-based cuisine — where every recipe tells a story.
Far from clichés, her workshops are a chance to explore the subtleties, techniques, and ingredients of Indian cuisine, and to dive into the fascinating world of spices.
