SUMMARY:Sri Lankan Cookery Class with Jaufferkhan | BRISTOL
DESCRIPTION:Chef Jaufferkhan will teach delicious\, authentic Sri Lankan dishes followed by a sit-down meal.\n\n\n \nABOUT THE CUISINE \nSri Lankan cuisine is bursting with colour and spice – shaped by centuries of trade and cultural exchange. Known for its fragrant curries\, coconut-rich sauces\, and vibrant vegetarian dishes\, it offers a perfect balance of heat\, sweetness\, and tang. From fluffy Nei Soru (coconut rice) to spicy Kozhi Curry\, Sri Lankan food is deeply social and rooted in hospitality\, bringing people together through shared meals and bold flavours. \n \n\n\n\n \nABOUT THE CHEF \nA message from chef Jaufferkhan: \n“Jaufferkhan means open-minded. I’m from Sri Lanka\, an island known as the Pearl of Asia. I love my country\, it is like paradise. \nI fondly remember picking fresh mango and guava. My passion for cooking began at age 10\, helping my mum clean okra and learning to haggle in the fish markets with my dad. My father was a teacher and provided for our family and his four sisters. My mother was the oldest daughter in her family\, so everyone would eat at our home. She was very generous and always cooked extra for those in need. \nSadly\, because of the civil war in Sri Lanka\, my family had to move to Bahrain. There I worked in the welfare department of an Islamic NGO\, but I was also able to use my cooking skills and I cooked for events for the Youth Group. My wife is also a very good cook and our dream is to open a restaurant. I’m very proud of my parents\, they taught me to be generous\, so I am excited to share my recipes\, perfected over 40 years.” \n \nON THE MENU (subject to change): \n\nNei Soru (Coconut Rice) | Vegan\nKozhi Curry (Chicken Curry) | Meat (Chicken); Sulphites\nKaliya (Aubergine Curry) | Vegan; Sulphites\, Mustard\nPol Sambol (Coconut Chutney) | Vegan\nMeen Bajji (Fish Patties) | Fish (Tuna); Fish\, Gluten (Wheat)\, Mustard\nMarakari Bajji (Vegetable Patties) | Vegan; Gluten (Wheat)\, Mustard\n\nThis menu is mostly vegetarian but includes one chicken dish and patties with both fish and vegetarian fillings. \nAllergens include: sulphites\, mustard\, fish\, gluten\, \nPlease let us know if you have any specific dietary requirements so our team is aware ahead of the class.

Food acted as the glue that kept us together. \nMost of my cooking skills I learned and inherited from my Granny – I was asked to read out recipes from Good Housekeeping magazines – she would choose the ones she thought sounded the most delicious and we’d cook them together\, usually for special occasions like Christmas and birthdays. This ignited my passion for teaching and cooking – allowing me to own a catering business and become a qualified teacher. A deep appreciation for food was developed because I understood the role it played in relationships and families\, eventually extending to my own. \nI arrived in Bristol some years ago\, and have shared my Trinidad culture through numerous cookery classes.

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.

SUMMARY:Pakistani Cookery Class with Amtul | Veg Friendly | Bristol
DESCRIPTION:Chef Amtul will teach delicious\, authentic Pakistani dishes followed by a sit-down meal.\n\n\nABOUT THE CUISINE \n \nWith deep roots in regional traditions and home cooking passed down through generations\, Pakistani cuisine is known for its bold spices\, fresh herbs\, and slow-cooked stews. 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.

I was always asking\, ‘Please can I help?’ and by the time I went to university\, I had learned to cook simply by watching them. \nEvery summer\, I loved visiting my mum’s family in the village.

SUMMARY:Iranian Cookery Class with Rose | Veg Friendly | Bristol
DESCRIPTION:Chef Rose will teach delicious\, authentic Iranian dishes followed by a sit-down meal.\n\n\nABOUT THE CUISINE \nIranian cuisine is renowned for its aromatic herbs\, delicate spices\, and beautiful balance of sweet and sour flavours. 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.

I’m from Sri Lanka\, an island known as the Pearl of Asia. I love my country\, it is like paradise. \nI fondly remember picking fresh mango and guava. My passion for cooking began at age 10\, helping my mum clean okra and learning to haggle in the fish markets with my dad. My father was a teacher and provided for our family and his four sisters. My mother was the oldest daughter in her family\, so everyone would eat at our home. She was very generous and always cooked extra for those in need. \nSadly\, because of the civil war in Sri Lanka\, my family had to move to Bahrain. There I worked in the welfare department of an Islamic NGO\, but I was also able to use my cooking skills and I cooked for events for the Youth Group. My wife is also a very good cook and our dream is to open a restaurant. I’m very proud of my parents\, they taught me to be generous\, so I am excited to share my recipes\, perfected over 40 years.” \n \nON THE MENU (subject to change): \n\nNei Soru (Coconut Rice) | Vegan\nKozhi Curry (Chicken Curry) | Meat (Chicken); Sulphites\nKaliya (Aubergine Curry) | Vegan; Sulphites\, Mustard\nPol Sambol (Coconut Chutney) | Vegan\nMeen Bajji (Fish Patties) | Fish (Tuna); Fish\, Gluten (Wheat)\, Mustard\nMarakari Bajji (Vegetable Patties) | Vegan; Gluten (Wheat)\, Mustard\n\nThis menu is mostly vegetarian but includes one chicken dish and patties with both fish and vegetarian fillings. \nAllergens include: sulphites\, mustard\, fish\, gluten\, \nPlease let us know if you have any specific dietary requirements so our team is aware ahead of the class.
