Whether you're vegan, vegetarian or looking to add more plant-based diet recipes into your repertoire, discover top tips and tricks for whipping up Thai, Chinese and Indian meals plus some tasty baked goods.

A friendly, local chef from Leeds Cookery school will take you through every step of different recipes. This foodie adventure will take you from North India to China and Thailand over three cooking classes before finishing the course with a baking class with plenty of sweet treats.

Plant-based Chinese cooking class:
The skills you learn here are sure to make you put down the takeaway menu and cook up a storm at home whenever you want. In this part of the course, you will take a deep dive into the world of tofu, and stir-fried rice and learn how to make dumplings.

Plant-based baking class:
Uncover the fundamental knowledge of creating biscuits and cookies using plant-based ingredients.

Leeds Cookery School donates 100% of its profit to Zest, a local Leeds charity supporting people living in disadvantaged areas of the city. Zest carry out a large number of projects including running social clubs, helping families to access food in the school holidays, developing cooking skills and lots more in between!

Across our range of classes, courses and events at Leeds Cookery School our teachers promote and talk about seasonal ingredients, local sourcing and the importance of eating ethically and sustainably. Our ingredients are sourced from Yorkshire and are sustainable wherever possible and we always use free-range eggs. We order small quantities to minimise wastage and always consider the food miles travelled by our ingredients.

As well as donating profits to Zest, Leeds Cookery School has committed to running affordable cooking activities throughout the year, in partnership with Jamie’s Ministry of Food Leeds and Zest’s Community Development Team. These sessions enable low-income families and vulnerable people to access basic cookery skills and cookery clubs that address social isolation.
