Indian Made Easy: Cooking with Love and Ayurveda
Preview
Curious about Indian cooking but think it is too complicated. Learn simple, joyful ways to bring real Indian flavor and Ayurvedic wellness into your Orange County kitchen.
Why This Episode Matters
Indian cooking has a reputation for being complex, time consuming, or full of hard to find ingredients. The truth is that real Indian home cooking is simple, intuitive, and built on love and everyday wellbeing. Most people just need someone to show them how to begin without feeling overwhelmed.
In this episode of The Tea on Wellness, I take you into the kitchen that shaped Tea and Turmeric. It is the same place where my grandmother Amma Amma taught me to cook with intuition, to trust the spices, and to bring attention and care into the pot. These lessons became the heart of our Indian Made Easy Kit and the foundation for our cooking classes here in Laguna Beach.
If you have wanted to cook Indian food but never knew where to start, this episode shows you how to make it joyful, nourishing, and deeply connected to Ayurvedic wisdom.
Indian Cooking Made Simple
Indian flavor comes from balance. A little heat from ginger. Warmth from turmeric. Digestive support from cumin. When you know the purpose of each spice, the process becomes natural rather than intimidating.
In this episode, I walk through our handmade blends from the Indian Made Easy Kit, including Veggie Mix and GG Mix, and explain how each blend supports both flavor and wellness. We also explore how Ayurveda uses food to calm the mind, support digestion, and build daily vitality in gentle and accessible ways.
You will also hear the story behind Amma Amma’s dal, a comforting red lentil and split mung dish taught in our Laguna Beach cooking classes and loved by families across Orange County.
What You Will Learn
- how Amma Amma’s kitchen shaped my Ayurvedic approach to cooking
- the story behind Tea and Turmeric’s Indian Made Easy Kit
- simple ways to bring Ayurveda into your daily meals without overwhelm
- a step by step guide to making comforting dal with red lentils and split mung
- the wellness power of turmeric, cumin, ginger, and everyday spices
- where to join local cooking classes and sip Pink Masala Chai in Laguna Beach
Takeaway
Indian cooking becomes easy the moment you relax into it. When you cook with intention, curiosity, and love, the spices guide you. A simple pot of dal can hold more healing than any complicated recipe.
