(CANCELLED) Filipino Cookery Class with Tina | Family Style | LONDON

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 Tina from the Philippines at the Holdspace in London.

At our Family Style Cookery Classes, you will be grouped with other participants and prepare dishes together as a team. Think of Lola 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 Lola 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 Cuba. You will also be emailed the recipes after the class.

A sample menu of the dishes that will be taught include:

• Ukoy (Shrimp fritters)
• Sinigang (Pork soup - this is a national dish!)
• Pancit Guisado (Stir Fried chicken and vegetable noodles)
• Kinilaw (Tuna ceviche)

This menu is includes meat (pork and shrimp). Allergens include: gluten and shellfish.

Please let us know if you have any specific dietary requirements so our team is aware ahead of the class but kindly note that we will not be substituting any ingredients to accommodate dietary needs so please only book into classes that suit your dietary preferences and needs. Please see our Food and Allergen Policy when booking into the class for more information.

A message from our Chef Tina:

“Hi I’m Cristina. I’m from the province of Bulacan which is close to Manila in The Philippines. I love to cook. My favourite thing to make is Inangit, sticky rice with coconut milk. This was my mother’s favourite dish and she passed it down to me. I’m the eldest of 4 and my mother taught how to cook perfect rice when I was 7 so that I could cook for my siblings when she went to work. I’m excited to share Filipino food with people in this country. Teaching a class and sharing my food and my culture with new people fills me with joy and brings back so many happy memories of the home I had to leave behind.”
