I grew up in Spanish Town\, the capital of the Parish of St Catherine. We lived very centrally as my mum worked in the market in town\, selling fish and fresh vegetables. I would often help my mum at the market\, and I learnt to cook by watching her. Sometimes when she was working\, I would look after my younger siblings and would cook for them. My passion for cooking only grew\, and I often cooked for my neighbours and for parties and celebrations for my friends and family. I love seeing satisfaction and joy on people’s faces when I cook for them. My favourite dish is ackee and salt fish – so much so that when I moved to Antigua\, I brought an ackee tree to plant in my garden\, and this is something that I always cook for my two children. \n \nI’ve been in Bristol for a year now\, and it’s a very friendly and supportive city. I’m volunteering with local refugee charities Bristol Hospitality Network and Borderlands. When I got my refugee status last year\, I held a big picnic in the park for my friends to celebrate. Jamaican food is spicy and full of flavour\, using lots of fresh vegetables and herbs. \n \nCooking and eating Jamaican food helps me reconnect to home\, music is also very important to me\, and I love dancing while I cook – no matter what is going on in life\, it makes me feel happy. I’m very excited to share my recipes with you!” \n \nWHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR MIGRATEFUL COOKERY CLASS \nParticipants will work together to cook a family-style meal from scratch\, guided by the expertise of a refugee or migrant chef\, before sitting down to share lunch. \nAlongside practical cooking skills\, Migrateful’s programme encourages curiosity\, empathy and cultural connection\, helping young people build a positive understanding of refugee and migrant experiences through shared food and conversation. The sessions are also designed to support wellbeing through the therapeutic and social benefits of cooking together\, while giving families new recipe ideas and the confidence to recreate the dishes at home. \nAt the same time\, the classes create paid work opportunities and experience for migrant and refugee chefs participating in our wider programme.

Their passion became my passion too. I enjoy blending traditional Nigerian flavours with my own touches to create dishes that feel familiar yet new. My mum and aunt are so impressed and I hope I impress you too! \nIn Nigeria\, we cook with a lot of varieties of protein\, using beef\, chicken\, goat\, eggs\, nuts and beans. The climate in Nigeria helps the farmers to grow many leafy vegetables\, yam\, sweet potatoes\, plantain and cocoa. I can’t wait to share all of these wonderful ingredients with you in my class. \nWhen I’m not in the kitchen\, you’ll find me on the football pitch or in my dance class.

I remember the day she let me cook was one of the best days of my life. It really boosted my confidence\, like I can do anything! Before leaving Jamaica\, I used to cook from home and sell the food for a living. My food was very popular and I really enjoyed doing it. \nWhen I moved to the UK\, I worked in a Caribbean restaurant for many years. My coleslaw was famous at the restaurant!

I am from eastern Turkey\, although at university I met people from other regions and learnt about various different cultures and recipes. \nI grew up in a big city with my three big sisters who were already helping my mum in the kitchen. I was always asking ‘Please can I help?’ By the time I got to university I had learned how to cook just by watching! \nIn the summer I loved going to stay with my mum’s family\, who lived in a village. They grew and cooked their own vegetables. There I had my Grandma all to myself and learned to make yoghurt and cheese\, which I still make for my own family. \nBig meals at home with family and friends were an important part of our lives. We had to be strong to manage the huge pots we used. Our food traditions are very varied with lots of different recipes for meat and vegetables.” \n \nWHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR MIGRATEFUL COOKERY CLASS \nParticipants will work together to cook a family-style meal from scratch\, guided by the expertise of a refugee or migrant chef\, before sitting down to share lunch. \nAlongside practical cooking skills\, Migrateful’s programme encourages curiosity\, empathy and cultural connection\, helping young people build a positive understanding of refugee and migrant experiences through shared food and conversation. The sessions are also designed to support wellbeing through the therapeutic and social benefits of cooking together\, while giving families new recipe ideas and the confidence to recreate the dishes at home. \nAt the same time\, the classes create paid work opportunities and experience for migrant and refugee chefs participating in our wider programme.

I learned Persian cooking techniques from my mother\, but also particularly from my grandfather. He was a chef who loved to cook with the food he had grown. He had a large field of crocuses – which are the source of saffron\, a very important ingredient in Iranian cooking. \nCooking was always a passion of mine\, alongside my main profession; I trained and worked as a lawyer in Iran. I also worked as a head chef in Iran. For me\, cooking is not only about making food\, it’s about sharing happiness\, my culture and my memories\, and bringing people together. Through a friend in my English class\, I was very lucky to hear about Migrateful – it is giving me the chance to share my culture and the amazing Persian food from my childhood.

From rich stews like Fesenjan to vibrant yoghurt dishes and saffron-scented rice. Iranian food is deeply social\, with meals shared in warm\, communal gatherings\, a celebration of hospitality\, and connection. \n \nABOUT THE CHEF \nA message from Chef Rose: \n“My name is Rose\, and I moved to the UK two years ago. \nCooking has always been one of my biggest passions. I also love learning recipes from different countries because I believe food is a wonderful way to discover new cultures\, traditions\, and stories. \nBefore moving to the UK\, I studied midwifery and later trained in surgery. I worked in a surgical department for 17 years. Although my career was in healthcare\, food has always played an important role in my life. \nMy mother was an excellent cook and was well known among family and friends for her delicious meals and desserts. She wanted me to focus on my education\, so she never really taught me how to cook. However\, growing up with her wonderful food taught me what good food should taste like and gave me a real appreciation for cooking. \nI only started cooking after I got married. In Iranian culture\, preparing food for the family is often an important part of home life. To my surprise\, I learned very quickly\, and before long people were complimenting my food and asking for my recipes. I believe I owe this to my mother\, whose cooking shaped my taste and inspired me to cook with care\, attention\, and love. \nOver the years\, I have enjoyed cooking for family and friends\, especially for celebrations and special occasions. Nothing makes me happier than seeing people enjoy a meal that I have prepared. \nToday\, I enjoy sharing Iranian food with others while continuing to learn new dishes and ingredients from around the world. Through my cooking\, I hope to share not only the flavours of Iran but also the warmth\, hospitality\, and traditions that are such an important part of Iranian culture.” \n \n \n\n\n\n \nON THE MENU (subject to change) \n\nMirza Ghasemi (Aubergine Dip) | Vegetarian; Egg\nAdas Polo (Sweet and Fragrant Lentil Rice) | Vegetarian; Milk\nAsh Reshteh (Noodle Soup) | Vegetarian; Milk\, Gluten (Wheat)\nBorani Esfenaj (Spinach Dip) | Vegetarian; Milk\, Tree Nuts (Walnuts)\nSambusa (Spiced Potato Filo Parcels) | Vegan; Gluten (Wheat)\nTas Kebab (Tangy Chicken with Quince and Plums) | Meat (Chicken); None\n\nThis menu contains meat (chicken) but is vegetarian-friendly\, with 5 of 6 dishes meat-free.

In Gaza\, I was a university lecturer in psychology for 20 years and a director of a charity supporting mothers and children. I have 5 children: 2 daughters who still live in Gaza\, a son and daughter in Canada and a son in London. \nAs a young woman\, I lived in Libya. I married there\, brought up my children and achieved my degree and my Masters. Libya’s sky seemed open to my dreams and I was very happy there. \nWhen I first arrived in the UK\, I had nothing here and felt lonely and ashamed. I am thankful to have become part of the Migrateful family. Migrateful has helped me feel more positive and I am happy to share my food and my culture. \nWhen I cook I always think of my mother. I don’t use recipes but cook by a sense I inherited from her. My mother and father always talked about their life before Gaza – I have never been to their home in Ashdod but I feel I know it. My father caught fish\, and they always had fresh vegetables from the countryside. I am passionate about making healthy and nutritious food. It is so important for our lives and our physical and mental health.

When the hotel closed\, I first started cooking for homeless people and then for children with additional needs. I became a mother figure for many of the kids and some of the older people.

From curries and lentils to fritters and salads\, it sits within South Asian cooking while keeping its own distinct identity. \n \nABOUT THE CHEF \nA message from Chef Amtul: \n““I come from Pakistan\, it is a beautiful country. I grew up in Rabwah\, on the lush green banks of the Chenab River in Punjab. The town was established for the Ahmadiyya community. \nI remember my childhood there very fondly\, they were the happiest days of my life and still bring me peace when I think about them. From the age of 10\, I helped my mother cook\, and by 12 I was cooking properly on my own. Okra masala and aubergine curry were among the first dishes I learned to make. My father always praised my cooking and gave me confidence\, while my mother would gently suggest ways to improve. \nAfter I married\, I moved to Bahawalpur with my husband\, who is a doctor\, and together we raised our four children. But because Ahmadis face persecution in Pakistan\, it became unsafe for us to stay there. We first moved to Senegal\, where my husband helped establish the Humanity First hospital\, and later to The Gambia so our children could study in English. In 2023\, we moved to the UK. \nPakistani culture is deeply rooted in hospitality and care for others\, it is very important to make guests feel welcomed and cared for. During my time in Senegal and Gambia\, I was always hosting people visiting the hospital from different countries. I always made sure they had delicious food to eat and extras to take with them. Cooking for people has always brought me joy. I only know how to cook in large quantities! My food is spicy\, balanced\, fresh\, comforting\, and full of flavour.

In Ecuador\, you can find four seasons in one day by travelling from one part of the country to another\, and that means that you can experience many different types of food in the country. When I came to England\, I started to do some voluntary work in a ‘healthy living’ community group\, and I used to run a session on healthy eating – this is reflected in my menu today. Teaching others about Ecuadorian food helps me feel close to my country and reminds me that even far from home\, we can still celebrate who we are and connect with others through culture and food.

While working as a teacher in Turkey\, I also created an Instagram account to share my favourite recipes. Through it\, I connected with many food lovers.

I try techniques from different chefs; each dish feels like a new journey. Two years ago\, I was introduced to Migrateful through a friend\, and during one of their events\, I found myself dreaming of being part of their journey.

Another favourite dish of mine is Beef Biryani which we cooked when we had family celebrations – which could include up to thirty people.

It combines rice\, breads\, and vegetables into comforting\, shared meals full of flavour and heart. From curries and lentils to fritters and salads\, it sits within South Asian cooking while keeping its own distinct identity. \n \nABOUT THE CHEF \nA message from Chef Amtul: \n““I come from Pakistan\, it is a beautiful country. I grew up in Rabwah\, on the lush green banks of the Chenab River in Punjab. The town was established for the Ahmadiyya community. \nI remember my childhood there very fondly\, they were the happiest days of my life and still bring me peace when I think about them. From the age of 10\, I helped my mother cook\, and by 12 I was cooking properly on my own. Okra masala and aubergine curry were among the first dishes I learned to make. My father always praised my cooking and gave me confidence\, while my mother would gently suggest ways to improve. \nAfter I married\, I moved to Bahawalpur with my husband\, who is a doctor\, and together we raised our four children. But because Ahmadis face persecution in Pakistan\, it became unsafe for us to stay there. We first moved to Senegal\, where my husband helped establish the Humanity First hospital\, and later to The Gambia so our children could study in English. In 2023\, we moved to the UK. \nPakistani culture is deeply rooted in hospitality and care for others\, it is very important to make guests feel welcomed and cared for. During my time in Senegal and Gambia\, I was always hosting people visiting the hospital from different countries. I always made sure they had delicious food to eat and extras to take with them. Cooking for people has always brought me joy. I only know how to cook in large quantities! My food is spicy\, balanced\, fresh\, comforting\, and full of flavour. I am excited to share my recipes with Migrateful and hope you enjoy them!” \n \n\n\n\n \nON THE MENU (subject to change) \n \n\nPalak Paneer (Traditional Cheese in Spinach Curry) | Vegetarian; Milk\nChicken Mughlai (Rich Chicken Curry) | Meat (Chicken); Milk\, Tree Nuts (Pistachio\, Cashew)\nParatha Roti (Flaky Flatbread) | Vegetarian; Milk\, Gluten (Wheat)\nRaita (Yoghurt Side Dish) | Vegetarian; Milk\nKachumber (Spicy Tangy Salad) | Vegan; None\nSabzi Pilau (Fragrant Vegetable Rice) | Vegetarian; Milk\nBaingan Sabzi (Aubergine Curry) | Vegan; None\nPakora (Deep-Fried Vegetable Fritter) | Vegan; None\n\n \nThis menu contains meat (chicken) but is vegetarian-friendly\, with 7 of 8 dishes meat-free.
