 If
your school going kid wants a special dish in lunchbox
everyday and if your beauty conscious teenage daughter

worry! Just attend different crash courses at Komal
Kala Niketan and keep your family members happy.
Serve them what they want. Komal Kala Niketan -
the institute of Cookery and Crafts run by Mrs.
Kusum Tolwala. "After finishing my B.Sc.
from Osmania University in 1973, I started my career
as a medical representative. After my marriage I
could not continue the job. As I was very much interested
in cooking, I started Komal Kala Niketan - to teach
preparaing various dishes. This also helped ,me
in earning some money by sitting at home,"
explained Mrs. Kusum.
 At
Komal Kala Niketan, one can learn variety of cooking
courses ranging from Chinese, North Indian, Western
snacks to Salads, Fruit juices and Cakes.
All the courses offered here are crash courses which
can be finished in couple of days time. The fee
is also very less, not more than Rs. 500. "Most
of the students who attend my classes are married
women, normally they don't have much time to spare
for these courses. So I design my courses in such
a manner that the students can learn in a short
period of time," said Mrs. Kusum.
 Helping
in this endeavour are her notes which she jogs down
from various text books. The notes are generallyb
related to nutritious and medicinal values of all
eatables. She applies these notes wherever possible.
In all her classes she explains how a particualr
dish or juice or salad is helpful for health. She
says, " few years ago I was suffering from
piles and doctors advised me to go for an operation.
Then I applied my knowledge and prepared a juice
with Coriandrum, Pudina, Keera and Buttermilk which
I had it periodically. With in three days, I got
complete relief from the piles."
 She
feels that nature has given us so many things like
fruits, vegetables. She advises us to eat as many
seasonal fruits as possible. She says instead of
spending on the soft drinks, we can prepare fresh
fruits juices, which are good for our health as
they are rich in minerals and vitamins. Believing
in the same principle, Komal Kala Niketan teaches
you the preparation formulae of 17 types of salads
and more than 15 types of juices, 15 Chinese dishes,
10 types of chats, and five types of cakes, etc.
Thousands of women are benefitted by attending these
classes. Eminent personalities like Dr. Shobha
Naidu (Kuchipudi Dancer), Dr. Saida too
attended various courses of Komal Kala Niketan.
Mrs. Kusum's dieting
formula involves taking less calories of food but
not straving ourselves. She has good number of such
tips in her kitty bag and they spontaneously come
out in the coaching classes.
