Let your tastebuds discover Morocco, without leaving the comfort of your home with this live-streaming cook along.

During this fun virtual cooking class, you will cook along live with Aicha, learning her family's famous dish – which you won't be able to find on Google!

Along the way, you won't just learn the steps, you'll also learn the stories and secrets behind this heritage recipe.

Your friendly teacher and talented cook, Aicha, was born and raised in a small town called Ben Slimane, between Rabat and Casablanca, Morocco. Aicha's mum worked incredibly hard and food was her way of showing love.

"My mum used to wake up very early, make fresh bread and prepare breakfast for her 7 kids. I used to hear her chopping the veggies and it was like music to my ears. And of course, the smell of the freshly baked bread, the frying of the onions, garlic… I still smell them when I think about her."

Come along and share in Aicha's love of food and traditional recipes that have been passed down through her family. Whether you're an experienced cook or completely new to the kitchen, you'll discover something new and end the class with a flavourful meal and some newfound culinary skills and techniques all the way from Morocco!
