Overview

Cooking with Confidence is an 8-part cooking course for those of you who have got the basics, but are looking to take it up a notch and are eager to learn more. We’ll take you from near newcomer to new found talent. Every week we will focus on a particular technique, with recipes chosen to build your learning and elevate your skills, ensuring you gain a solid culinary foundation. You’ll learn essential knife skills, become a pro with vegetables and make a selection of achievable desserts.

Our recipes use affordable, store cupboard ingredients, most of which are easy to source from your local supermarket. All the recipes are easy to weave into your weekly shop for you to create special dinners.

You’ll master dozens of delicious recipes; Sea Bass en Papillote & Hasselback Potatoes, Ginger & Orange Tiramisu and Miso Aubergine & Rice Noodles. We’ll show you how to whip up impressive one pot dishes, the importance of mise en place, how to prepare and cook shellfish and all the skills you need to entertain effortlessly.

As always, our Leiths mentors will be on hand to give you one to one feedback as well as help you personalise this course to your lifestyle and dietary needs with ingredient swaps and changes.

With Cooking with Confidence you don’t just learn recipes; you learn the skills to convert dishes to other recipes. With your Leiths mentor on hand, you can ask questions, receive feedback on your cooking and learn how to work around pitfalls.
