Ashoka Cook School

A clever, old, Indian proverb states: ‘Give a man a pakora and he will eat pakora that night. Teach him how to make pakora and he will never go back to beans on toast’.

Learn how to make perfect pakora with today’s Big Deal on a pakora masterclass at the Ashoka Cook School.

Based in the Phoenix Leisure Park in Linwood, the Ashoka Cook School provides expert tuition in purpose-built teaching kitchens.

If you love Indian food and fancy trying your hand at cooking your own then this offer is your passport to pakora paradise.

Don’t worry if you can’t tell your balti from your bhaji, the classes are suitable for all levels of ability.

Step-by-step tuition

Available seven days a week, each class lasts approximately two to two and a half hours and will give pupils a step-by-step guide to making pakora.

The courses will cover how to make vegetable, chicken, cauliflower and haggis pakoras, as well as showing you how to prepare pakora sauce and fruit chutney.

Hands-on classes

The school’s masterchef will talk students through each dish before you give it a go at your work station.

At the end of the class, students will be provided with takeaway containers for dishes made on the day.

Each pupil will be given recipes as they leave so the next time that you feel the urge for a pakora, you can rustle some up at home.

Great gift idea

This offer would be fantastic for the amateur curry cook who wants to reach peak pakora. It would also make a very welcome gift for the curry lover in your life.
