9.45am – 3.30pm
There is a large rise in people turning to a plant based diet. However it is important, in order to sustain this, that there is a good base knowledge of the nutrition required to maintain a healthy body and a selection of recipes to prevent it becoming boring. On this one day course we aim to show people who are beginners to vegan cookery or who are cooking for people who are vegan or for vegans who want a little help with planning exciting and nutritious meals. Arrive at 9.30am for a coffee or tea and we will start the demonstration and talk at 9.45am. After a short demonstration we’ll head to the kitchen for the morning cooking session. After lunch, which you have cooked, we carry on with the practical class and everything is packed up for you to take home.
Dishes covered may include:
Demonstration
Mocha Brownies
Vegetable Stock
Roast Garlic Aioli
Practical
Vietnamese Hot and Sour Soup
Butternut Squash, Lentil and Lime Curry topped with Non-Dairy Yogurt
Marinated Tofu with Chickpea, Tomato & Fresh Herb Salad with Red Pesto
Pistachio Biscotti

“I liked the variety of the recipes we used. Although my daughter is vegan and I have done some basic vegan cookery the recipes introduced me to some ingredients I hadn’t used before. I enjoyed everything we made and thought it was all really tasty. I thought the equipment and ingredients were all well organised and this helped us to keep to our timetable for the day. I very much enjoyed the day and my daughter thought it was a lovely Christmas gift!” – Donna (2024)
