This weekend workshop is dedicated to those who are either new to both vegetarian or vegan or those already familiar with the diet but, looking to extend their horizons. For many this can be a disorienting place to be; alone in the kitchen! The workshop covers all aspects from shopping essentials, equipment, common pitfalls, food combining to achieve a balance diet. The first day introduces the basics and introducing some easy to prepare midweek meals and flavour/seasonal combinations. We avoid…

The function of a sauce has never be underestimated since Roman times; it is the thread that combines all elements on a platter together more often to complement ingredients but sometimes to contradict in order to emphasise or highlight other flavour elements. This hands on workshop focuses on how to take control of this all important yet so often overlooked component by demonstrating structures and from this, how many applications can be layered with flavours to suit mood, season, key…

For many parents, the prospect of their children leaving home is a situation they can not always prepare themselves with given how many variables are involved. Young people left alone in a kitchen can be a bwilderig experience when one considers the volume of instant fix meals available on the market along with the well engineered targeted marketing we are familiar today. Whilst convenience meals have their place, they are not a well balanced substitute for cooking at home when…

We are all too familiar with buying ingredients all year round as we rely on international logistics. There are however, some treats that we cherish when they arrive as there is a context associated with them. The chestnut bomb explosions and smoke confetti that fills the air on a dark and silent night. That first bite into summer’s peaches ripened in Mediterranean orchards groves and ready to eat often displaces us to summertime of yesteryear. The headiness of wild garlic…

Familiar flavours from the Lebanon and Middle East all too often seem to be shrouded like mist, delicate, light and sometimes the spice and herb blends not obvious yet they complement the main ingredients. This workshop indeed embraces some of these very qualities by working oils and spices mixes to ingredients most of us are already familiar with in a very sophisticated way; saffron fused in rosewater, cardamoms ground with cinnamon and figs and like a mosaic they come together…

Removing the mystery of making fresh pasta accompanied with small plates. Pasta and authentic antipasto are both comfort foods that many of us enjoy. However, what is presented to us on supermarket shelves and some high street establishments are versions which have an identity of their own, which of course has its place and the benefit of convenience. Those who have been to Italy have no doubt experienced authentic pesto or mozzarella and the unique difference in flavours, textures in…

A culinary melting pot; for many, this may appear a sophisticated extension to familiar Indian cuisine but, by definition it is a delicious combination of native African, French, Chinese and Indian ingredients and flavours that come together to create a unique cuisine. As a colony of France during the 18th century, Mauritius has had strong ties with French culture followed by the end of the 19th century saw the arrival of Chinese immigrants, who created another layer to the established…

Indian food has always been a popular option amongst both vegan and vegetarians. However, for a large number of food outlets it still remains the old style flocked wallpaper menus despite the fact the cuisine has changed dramatically in large cities throughout India. New ingredients throughout India are celebrated and expanded beyond their traditional limits and old style heavy oil and spiced masala are replaced with olive oil and other Mediterranean ingredients and international spices. The nouveau Indian lighter cuisine…

Home comfort with food and wine are life’s pleasures. Everyday cooking for many people can become repetitive and just variations on an existing recipe.

We cook with international ingredients and exotic and different flavours to complement our lifestyle changes and the enjoyment of sharing this experience. This is an intense workshop with the focus on cooking for leisure and good living which is also suitable for vegetarian…

Familiar flavours from the Lebanon and Middle East all too often seem to be shrouded like mist, delicate, light and sometimes the spice and herb blends not obvious yet they complement the main ingredients. This workshop indeed embraces some of these very qualities by working oils and spices mixes to ingredients most of us are already familiar with in a very sophisticated way; saffron fused in rosewater, cardamoms ground with cinnamon and figs and like a mosaic they come together…
