STREET FOOD EXPRESS – SHAKSHUKA

Bored with the usual places to go for lunch? Don’t fancy another sandwich on the go? Join us at Blackfriars Cookery School for more dynamic lunch with our 1-hour Express cookery classes. You will learn to make a classic street food dish that can take you to the streets of Bangkok or Mumbai and back, prepared at your very own individual workstation. Each class focuses on a particular street food, giving the chance to explore new and authentic ingredients in just one hour!

In this hands-on workshop you will dive into the flavours of the Middle East by preparing the classic dish, Shakshuka. The name shakshuka comes from the Arabic word “shakshak,” meaning “to mix things up,” which perfectly describes this hearty dish of eggs poached in a rich tomato sauce with olive oil, peppers, onions and garlic. Shakshuka is incredibly versatile and you can customise it with ingredients like potatoes, broad beans, artichokes, courgettes, minced meat, or chorizo. In this class, you’ll prepare a special version featuring Merguez sausage and pistachios for a flavourful twist.

Once the cooking is over you can sit, with a beer or glass of fizz, and consume your handiwork. These courses are designed to be relaxed, informative and fun.
