Glaswegians love a good curry – that’s a fact.

Forget haggis, neeps and tatties: it’s fair to say curry is our own national dish.

Glasgow is not short of excellent curry restaurants, but do you know how to create a mouthwatering curry at home?

Today’s Big Deal for a curry making masterclass at Tennent’s Training Academy teaches you how.

The short, introductory class is designed for beginners to teach all the basics of making a quick great tasting curry in the home or for curry lovers looking for inspiration and new ideas.

Dietary requirements

Each cookery class has a particular theme so guests can keep coming back to each class and learn a new curry each time.

All dietary requirements, and those with a milder palette, will be catered for.

The class starts with a lesson on spices, herbs and essential store cupboard ingredients as well as expert tuition on how to make a popular sauce or paste.

You’ll find out what key accompaniments you should use, pick up ideas on presentation, and discover new ways to serve your dishes family style.

After your guided tuition you will take to your own state of the art stations to begin cooking a full main course you will be able to sit down and enjoy your own bespoke curry dishes with the rest of the group at the chef’s table and enjoy a glass or two of complementary wine or pint of Tennent’s lager.
