About This Event

In this TRAINING CLASS Tarik will teach delicious, authentic Ethopian dishes followed by a sit-down meal.

Our talented new cohort of Migrateful chefs are wrapping up their initial training and getting ready to hold their first cookery classes to the public.

This training class will be led by Chef Tarik from Ethopia at the Migrateful Cookery School in Clerkenwell, London.

Please note, during these training classes, we will be testing the dishes, and how the class runs. Think of it like a technical rehearsal at the theatre. This means it may run for longer than a normal class and involve some stop/starting. Our Chef Development team will also be present to guide and observe, along with volunteers who will help support the chef, and we will ask for your feedback at the end of the class.

A sample menu of the dishes that will be taught includes:

  • Dench Wat (Spicy Potato Stew)| Vegetarian; Eggs, Milk
  • Tikil Gomen (Ethiopian Cabbage, Carrot and Potato)| Vegan; None
  • Gomen (Slow-Cooked Greens)| Vegan; None
  • Shiro Wat (Chickpea Stew) | Vegetarian; Milk
  • Beetroot | Vegan; None
  • Mista Salad (Green Lentil Salad)| Vegan; Mustard
  • Ayib (Soft Ethiopian Cheese)| Vegetarian; Milk
  • Dabo (Orange-Perfumed Bread)| Vegetarian; Gluten (Wheat), Milk

This menu is vegetarian. Allergens include: eggs, gluten, milk, mustard. Kindly note that we will not be substituting any ingredients to accommodate dietary needs, so please only book into classes that suit your dietary requirements. Please be aware that while all allergens listed above have been identified as being in this menu, traces of all 14 allergens will be present in this training class.

Please see our Food and Allergen Policy when booking into the class for more information.

Throughout the class, Chef Tarik will share stories about her food and culture. You’ll work together with other participants to prepare each of the dishes, before sitting down to share a meal together.

A message from our Chef Tarik:

“My name is Tarik and I am from Ethiopia – a country in East Africa, which has a long history and is home to many. We are proud to have 83 different languages. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church combines elements of the Old and New Testament; this old history combined with Ethiopia’s natural beauty of volcanos, mountains and lakes now attracts many tourists to Ethiopia.

My grandmother inspired me to cook and taught me a lot about cooking – she said I was a quick learner! She loved people and every day, she would make traditional Ethiopian coffee and invite all of our neighbours and friends to our home. She loves to cook for special occasions, especially at New Year. My grandmother also taught me the importance of kindness and being helpful and I think of her when I am cooking.

When I arrived in the UK, I continued my love of cookery and volunteered in community, church and Red Cross kitchens, in Liverpool and in Preston. I was referred to Migrateful by the Luminary Bakery and I love it so much! I look forward to teaching you about Ethiopian culture and about our food and drinks – I can’t wait to see you in my class!.”

We’re excited to have you in the class! Please take note of a few final reminders:
