Middle Eastern Feast Demo
Fri 28th March
Friday night in Dvir’s parents’ home is the evening that the family gathers and a feast is prepared with mezze of dips, salads and bread, followed by the main course with rice/grains and more salad. We'll demo a feast of our favourite recipes to share with your family and friends.

Middle Eastern Barbecue Workshop
Sat 14th June
Our most popular workshop to date. Build a fire and this couple will come. Nicola and Dvir have spent years barbecuing and cooking over fires in Israel where it’s a national pastime, and on Nicola’s family farm where they’ve made a fire-cooking haven. Meat is usually the go-to for most cooking on fire but this couple love the flavour it gives to vegetables too.
Dishes prepared on the night: mashweya (barbecued salad), flatbreads, lamb kebabs, chicken shishlik, charred cabbage with harissa & date dressing. For dessert we’ll prepare a Middle Eastern style summer pudding. Served with salads, sauces and sides.

Sample menu of flatbreads prepared on the night: pita with za'atar, laffa, lachmanjun with spiced beef/aubergine. Served with salads and sides.
Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and meat eaters!
