Vegetarian Cookery

12 October 2016

Whether you're a vegetarian looking to extend your repertoire or a meat eater looking to increase the amount of vegetables in your diet this course will appeal.

Duration: 10:00-16:00

We'll show you that there doesn't necessarily need to be a hunk of meat at the centre of every meal.

Cooking meals using only vegetables can be both a creative and liberating experience. On this course you'll also learn some vegetarian mezze or tapas dishes, a style of eating which lends itself very well to vegetarian cookery.
