With one foot in Europe and the other in Asia, Turkish cuisine is a melting pot of east and west which is going through an exciting culinary renaissance both in Istanbul and in the number of modern ‘Ottoman’ restaurants opening in major cities across Europe.

In this class, we’ll smell and taste some of the spices and ingredients that make Turkish cooking so unique, and prepare some exciting dishes that you’ll want to make at home for your own Ottoman feast!

Some of the dishes we’ll learn include:

Carrot and pistachio fritters with chili yoghurt sauce
Cheese and spiced apricot phyllo ‘cigars’
Marinated sirloin kebabs with burnt tomato and chili sauce
Firik (smoked green wheat) pilaf
Yoghurt-tahini pudding with sour cherries and grape molasses

We’ll finish the evening by grinding and brewing our own Turkish coffees.
