ESSENTIAL THAI:

Thai Cooking is based on fresh ingredients combined harmoniously to make perfectly balanced dishes.

As we discuss the principles of Thai cooking we'll prepare everything we need to cook spring rolls, hot and sour soup, pad thai noodles, green or red curry with rice and accompanying salads. We'll end wiith a sweet dessert, a perfect end to a spicy Thai meal.

By then end of the day you'll have the skills and confidence to prepare a range of authentic Thai dishes at home

HEALTHY INDIAN ENTERTAINING: with guest chef Romy Gill

Author, demonstrator, restaurateur and producer of her own line of sauces and other products, Romy Gill has a passion for healthy cooking and a deep understanding of Indian Cuisine.

While growing up in India's West Bengal, Romy's family used traditional flavours from around the area in their cooking. As a girl Romy would cook with her mother and growing up in a multi and Indian cultural community, was introduced to recipes and styles of cooking from different regions of India.

Since moving to England Romy's focus has changed to cooking Indian food with an emphasis on healthy eating and nutrition. She also loves to include local West Country produce into her cooking.

Romy lives in the West Country with her husband and two daughters. She first joined us in 2011 and ran several very successful classes and we are delighted to be welcoming her back in 2012.

During each class we'll cook a range of dishes which typify the region, emphasising the key differences between North and South Indian cuisines.

10th March and 16th June. Northern Indian Entertaining. We'll cook deliciously sauced dishes like Rogan Josh and Butter Chicken along with naan bread, samosas and other accompaniments.

11th March and and 17th June. Southern Indian Entertaining. We'll cook a delicate Crab Curry, Fish in Coconut milk and sheekh kebab along with dosa and other accompaniments.

Each class costs £125 per person or book two days for £220.

 

ASIAN STREET FOOD:

Street Food in South East Asia is probably the best in the world and Pho is definitely my all time favourite food.

If you'd like to experience a little of Vietnamese, Lao and Thai cooking in one day then this class will be perfect. Based on our travels through South East Asia, we will sample some of our favourite street foods from across Thailand, Vietnam and even a little taste of Laos.

We have selected dishes which demonstrate the differences in the cuisines of each area as well as making use of a range of fish, meat and vegetable dishes.
