Hmmm. Let me share something I had observed from my past.
When my elder sister had completed her grads and was engaged, she was at home doing virtually nothing. Then she approached this lady who used to teach cooking, pottery, arts and crafts, mural painting, metal embossing etc. She was essentially a home maker and had some very basic skills from what I knew/saw, but she taught her students pretty well. And they further picked it up and developed their skills. Cooking is pretty much basic and doesn’t require any initial investment such as teaching/tuition for instance which requires a good room to begin with, desks, benches, boards etc.
Most ingredients, utensils, fuel, stove/oven etc. are already available at your disposal and your mother at the most, may have to brush up her skills on some of the complex dishes. Nowadays most women who prepare themselves to get married seem to attend cookery classes. Some of them may learn it from their mothers/maids as well but those who are not familiar with some cuisines which are popular at their partner’s place, learn it from the tutors. I am not sure about what can be charged, may be like 2k per month for beginners course (like dosa, rasam, sambhar, avial) and may be 1k more for advanced stuff like deserts, cakes etc?
Just put up a nice small hoarding outside the house so it is visible to the general public and catches their attention so they can spread the word around.
Just my 2 cents.
