About this course

Would you like to learn some new cooking techniques, brush up on your maths skills AND leave the lesson with some food prepared and ready to store for the holidays? If the answer is yes, then this is the course for you.

During each session, in our brand-new custom-built teaching kitchen, you’ll learn how to cook a different holiday recipe from scratch as well as sneaking in a bit of related maths practice. We’ll provide the ingredients and, as the course develops, you will be able to help decide what to cook. All the recipes we use will be plant based but with an option to make them meaty if you’d like.

In our six relaxed and friendly sessions we will prepare:

Canapes and appetizers
Gravy and sauces
Side dishes
Lighter meals and snacks
A meat free centerpiece
Ideas for using up leftovers

By the end of the course, you will have:

Prepared and stored a range of meals, snacks and sides for the holidays.
Written instructions and timings for how to prepare them on the day.
Used maths related to weighing and measuring.
Learnt how to scale a recipe up or down to feed more or less people.
Considered food budgeting and how to make the most of your food money.
Compared recipes and meals to the “Eatwell Guide” to ensure that all food groups are included.

Whilst the type of dish we’ll make each week has been planned in advance we’d love to include what you want to make. So if you have ideas for any of the above dishes that you would like to try please bring them along to the first session
