Have you read the cookbooks and watched the videos but still not cooking the meals you want? Does it feel overwhelming: the shopping, prepping, cooking and cleaning? Oh, the cleaning!
You must book a Beginner’s Guide to Home Cooking with Nothing Fancy. We will show you what you need to make fast, easy meals, including essential equipment, cooking techniques, batch cooking and so much more.
Your teacher, Leesa, is a realistic home cook who knows that to start cooking at 6.00pm is no way to end a busy day. She has over 30 years of cooking tasty, achievable family meals.
What you will do:
  • You will start with the basics: reading a recipe, chopping the vegetables, browning meat and adding spices, herbs and dressings.
  • Hands-on preparation of ingredients, demonstration of common cooking techniques, knife skills and understanding a recipe (what to buy, how to make it, storing leftovers).
  • A taste test of meals you can easily replicate when you get back home.
The meals you will see and taste:
  • Italian meatballs
  • Pasta sauces (Bolognese and Napoli)
  • Salads (Chicken Caesar and Greek)
  • Rice pots (Teriyaki beef, honey and soy chicken and vegetable pots)
  • Slow-cooked beef casserole on mashed potato
What you'll get
  • Knowledge and confidence to start your home cooking journey
  • A slow-cooker Drop Bag or ready-to-eat meal to enjoy with your family
  • A selection of easy-to-follow recipes
Knowledge required
Beginner-friendly.

female Women-owned

I am Leesa and I am a home cook who enjoys making meals from scratch and stocking my fridge and freezer for those busy nights.
I want to pass on what I have learnt over the past 30 years with a busy family life and a desire to not be in the kitchen for hours each night.
Home cooking is very satisfying and easily adapted to suit you and your family's taste. I will show participants the tips and tricks that I use every day to make my life easier. I offer a very relaxed and friendly space where all questions are welcome.
