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!

This event explores one of Spain’s most iconic dishes: paella. Originating from Valencia, this vibrant rice dish is packed with bold Mediterranean flavours and is a true celebration of simple, quality ingredients. Learn the secrets to creating perfectly cooked saffron-infused rice, balancing authentic seasonings, and preparing a traditional Spanish paella that’s ideal for sharing with family and friends.

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.
