Syrian Cookery Class with Faten| Veg Friendly | LONDON | Cookery School

Nothing beats a home-cooked meal shared with family! And this is what inspires our Family Style Cookery Classes, a fun, laid-back homestyle cooking experience. Here, you will learn to prepare different dishes and then enjoy them with people who, like you, fuel our mission of supporting refugee and migrant chefs on their journey to integration. It’s a cookery class with a conscience, like they say!

Your class will be led by our wonderful Chef Faten from Syria at Appleby Blue Almshouse, London.

At our Family Style Cookery Classes, you will be grouped with other participants and prepare dishes together as a team. Think of Chef Faten as the head of the family! She will take care of dividing the class into groups, and each group will be responsible for creating one of the dishes. Of course, you are welcome and encouraged to move around during the class to learn about the other dishes being prepared. Throughout the evening, Chef Faten will share stories about their food and culture, and explain how to prepare each of the dishes so you come away with some new cooking tricks and inspiration from Syria. You will also be emailed the recipes after the class.

A message from our Chef Faten:

"My name is Faten, I am from the Syrian city of Homs. I was born in Homs and lived there all my life. Homs is famous for Palmyra which is an ancient city dating back to the Neolithic period.

I am married with three children and I am a housewife. I have been living in the UK for three and a half years.

I enjoy reading children’s stories which helps me with my English. In Syria I enjoyed playing tennis.

My Mum taught me to cook after I married. I married when I was young. I used to call my Mum to get her to help me with recipes. But sometimes when she wasn’t home, I had to cook by myself. I remembered ingredients and the taste and I experimented until I was happy.

I enjoy working with Migrateful because I have made new friends and I like cooking and trying different foods."
