Solmaz is back with another Persian Masterclass, this time drawing on old family recipes to help you make a Persian feast, in this hands on cooking class. This is a BYOB event, so feel free to bring along some drinks to enjoy in the class. We'll then sit and eat what you've made - the perfect start to a wondful Fringe evening in Edinburgh!

On the night, Solmaz will be teaching you how to make a main of Saffron Chicken or Potato Kookoo (vegetarian), to serve with a Persian cucumber salad. Dessert will be pistachio and walnut cookies. 

Money raised goes towards our work. Our work involves bringing people together to enjoy good food and good company, whilst working towards addressing food insecurity in a dignified way. 

Allergens and Dietaries

This class can be made suitable for vegetarians. Please email at the time of booking with any allergen or diatary requirements. We will endeavour to accomodate these, although please be advised this class handles nuts so will not be suitable for those with severe allergies.
