About this Event
Nothing beats a home-cooked meal shared with family! And this is what inspires our Family Style Cookery Classes, a fun, laid-back homestyle cooking experience. Here, you will learn to prepare different dishes and then enjoy them with people who, like you, fuel our mission of supporting refugee and migrant chefs on their journey to integration. It’s a cookery class with a conscience, like they say!
Your class will be led by our wonderful Chef Meriam from Ethiopia at in Bristol.
At our Family Style Cookery Classes, you will be grouped with other participants and prepare dishes together as a team. Think of Chef Meriam as the head of the family! She will take care of dividing the class into groups, and each group will be responsible for creating one of the dishes. Of course, you are welcome and encouraged to move around during the class to learn about the other dishes being prepared. Throughout the evening, Chef Meriam will share stories about their food and culture, and explain how to prepare each of the dishes so you come away with some new cooking tricks and inspiration from Ethiopia. You will also be emailed the recipes after the class.

A message from our Chef Meriam:
“Hi, my name is Meriam and I am from Ethiopia. I was born in the capital city of Addis Ababa and lived there until I came to Bristol 10 years ago with my family.
Our house in Addis Ababa was always full of people and delicious food and the kitchen was the heart of our home. The time preparing food from scratch and sitting and enjoying meals together made life so rich and wonderful.
My mum is the most generous person, her heart is always full of love for others and she will offer food to anyone passing by. If they don’t have time to stay and eat, they can take it with them. My recipes are passed down from my mother and now when I am cooking, the smells transport me back to her kitchen. She would prepare all the spices by hand. I remember the aromas of the spices so clearly. Even more so when I am listening to Ethiopian music while I cook.”
