Fattah at Large with Soha Darwish!

Come and join a hands on cooking class mastering the art of Fatteh or Fattah is an all-time Middle Eastern favourite, its translation from Arabic is crushed or crumbs, as broken fried or toasted bread is a main component. Fattah is an incredibly versatile messy, layered dish of crispy bread, garlicky yoghurt sauce, vegetables or legumes, meat or chicken, and most importantly loads of exciting toppings as garnish. It is truly addictive, fun to make, and easily takes the centre of the table. 

We are delighted to welcome a new teacher Soha Darwish to come and expertly lead us on how to create this delicious feasting dish three ways. 

Soha says "I love the fact that it does not need special culinary skills nor any finesse to perfect. At the end, all ingredients come together beautifully delivering unforgettable notes of textures and flavours."

In this class you will make Fattah 3 ways:

Syrian Chicken Fattah
Chickpea (Hummus) Fattah
Aubergine & Beef Fattah
