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 Hani from Oman at All Saints Church in Peckham, London.

At our Family Style Cookery Classes, you will be grouped with other participants and prepare dishes together as a team. Think of Chef Hani as the head of the family! He 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 Hani 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 Oman. You will also be emailed the recipes after the class.

A message from our Chef Hani:

“My name is Hani, and I come from the Sultanate of Oman — a beautiful Gulf country with a rich history, deep-rooted traditions, and a vibrant culinary culture. My mum taught me to cook - she is Egyptian and I really love Egyptian food. My dad was from Oman, and I think this has helped me create my own type of cuisine - a mix of Egyptian and Omani food. My dad also loved to cook, so I had two very good teachers. I improved my cooking skills through observing and working with chefs in my restaurant business. Now I'm in the UK, I’m starting a new chapter and bringing with me the flavours of Oman. I hope to open my own restaurant business in London one day. Omani cuisine blends Asian influences with aromatic spices and herbs that bring warmth and depth to every dish, like one of our dishes today, ‘Makboos’. I hope to share not only delicious food, but also the soul of Omani hospitality. It is my honour to serve as a culinary ambassador for my homeland — to connect people, cultures, and communities, one dish at a time.”
