Connect with new cultures and travel to sunny Argentina, all from your own kitchen! In this online cooking class, you will learn how to make delicious and authentic empanadas.
This live online class comes to you straight from Argentina. You will be lead by an experienced and friendly chef who will guide you through each step of making this tasty food. This is perfect for when you need some rainy day activities that will add flavour and colour to your life.
You will learn how to make empanada dough from scratch and how to make two different fillings. You will then make a traditional spicy sauce called llauja.
The two empanadas fillings include:
  • Beef filling (as we prepare it in Buenos Aires)
  • Cheese-based vegetarian filling or vegan (seasonal)
As you bite into your very own version of this Latin American street food staple, it will give you a taste of Argentina. Close your eyes and you can almost imagine yourself sitting in a bodegon (local bar) surrounded by the spirit of porteño (people from Buenos Aires) and listening to tango music.
This is such a fun thing to do at home when you want to pick up some new kitchen skills and make some delicious food.
Knowledge required
This is a beginner-friendly class. But, if you are an expert chef, you will be getting an authentic recipe and all the tips you need to master your empanadas.
What to bring
After you book, we will send you a list of all the ingredients you need to have ready in your kitchen for the class.
