Chef Noor will teach delicious, authentic Pakistani dishes followed by a sit-down meal. Warm & easy, like being with family!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 Noor from Pakistan at St Ethelburga’s Centre for Reconciliation and Peace.
At our Family Style Cookery Classes, you will be grouped with other participants and prepare dishes together as a team. Think of Noor 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 Noor 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 Pakistan.
A sample menu of the dishes that will be taught include:
- Chicken Biryani | Meat (Chicken); Celery, Gluten, Milk
- Raita | Vegetarian; Milk
- Dahl | Meat (Chicken Stock); Celery

A message from our Chef Noor:
“My name is Noor. I am from Lahore in Pakistan. I arrived to the UK in 2015 and I am still waiting for my asylum claim to be accepted. Lahore is famous for its food – everyone is obsessed with it. You will find food at any time of day or night. There are so many different dishes! I love cooking. My mum always cooked us many different dishes when I was growing up. She let me cook for the family at weekends and that is how I learned how to cook. Pakistani dishes are known for having aromatic and sometimes spicy flavours. Brown cardamom, green cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, mace, and black pepper are the most commonly used spices in the making of a wide variety of dishes.”
