About This Event

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 this class. Once cooked, we'll then gather round and eat what you've made - the perfect start to a wonderful Fringe Evening in Edinburgh! This event will run from 5-7.30 with time to sit and eat at the end. 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 from our food events goes towards our work brining people together to enjoy good food and good company, whilst working towards addressing food insecurity in a dignified way. Allergens and Dietaries This class will be made suitable for vegetarians. Please email at the time of booking with any allergen or dietary requirements. We will endeavour to accommodate these, although please be advised this class handles nuts so will not be suitable for those with severe allergies.
