Celebrate the food of the Middle East at this exclusive cookery masterclass with Sabrina Ghayour, author of multi-award-winning cookbook Persiana. During this hands-on course, you’ll learn how to create a spicy chicken stew, a variety of sumptuous garnishes and side dishes, and a decadent dessert, all bursting with flavours from the Southern and Eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
This class is a unique opportunity for a small group of people to soak up insights on the history of Persian cookery, and lots of practical cookery tips and ideas. After you’ve prepared your main dishes, you’ll sit down to a sumptuous meal with Sabrina, and have the chance to quiz her about her life as a cook and food writer, as well as her appearances on TV shows such as BBC Two’s Great British Menu. You’ll finish up by cooking a traditional Middle Eastern dessert that you can take home with you, and – if you’re feeling generous – share with your friends or family.
