At 9265 SW Greenburg Rd in Tigard, Oregon, Chicken Tikka Masala offers a hands-on Indian cooking class that turns a weeknight into a small culinary festival. This two-hour introduction—open to cooks ages seven and up—walks you through spicy tomato rasam, creamy butter chicken, and a surprise dessert of ricotta pancakes in cardamom syrup. The room is a practical teaching kitchen: gas ranges, communal workstations, and a bar where you can grab a glass of wine before class begins. You arrive to a warm, efficient briefing: a quick safety rundown, an outline of the menu, and a station prepped with mise en place so you spend your time learning technique, not waiting. The instructor moves between stations for one-on-one guidance while the group shares tips and tasting spoons. Highlights include tempering spices for rasam, building the butter chicken sauce with simmered tomatoes and cream, and folding ricotta into batter for pillowy pancakes. The class handles cleanup; plates are boxed so you can take leftovers home. What makes this experience special is how it demystifies Indian home cooking without sacrificing authenticity. Butter chicken, noted in the class description as a dish enjoyed in India since before independence, is presented with traditional spices and approachable methods, so home cooks leave with confidence as well as recipes emailed to participants after class. The setup also makes the event social: the dining room becomes a shared table, where techniques become conversation and the bar service keeps spirits light. Practical details to plan your visit: classes run roughly two to two-and-a-half hours and accept guests starting at age seven. The group size is kept small to allow hands-on instruction; all sales are final with a re-booking fee if changes are made within 72 hours. The meeting point is 9265 SW Greenburg Rd, Tigard, OR 97223—there’s nearby parking and Bridgeport Village is a short drive if you want to extend an evening out.

If you enjoy learning by doing and want to bring a new family-friendly dinner into your repertoire—complete with naan, butter chicken, and a spiced ricotta finish—this class delivers practical skills, a lively atmosphere, and recipes you’ll actually use. Expect a relaxed pace that suits first-timers and curious home cooks alike. Wear closed-toe shoes and comfortable clothing; an apron is provided though bringing your own knife makes certain techniques easier. Vegetarian modifications are possible with advance notice.
