Sweet and Savoury Filo Pastry Workshop with Fatma
Thursday, February 13th at 6pm
Welcome to an evening of working with filo pastry! Tonight Fatma will guide you through the process of successfully working with filo pastry and will create 3 different variations. First, we will get "hands-on" to make a traditional tray of Baklava. Each student will get to take home a perfectly packaged portion for their Valentine! (Packaging will be provided) Fatma will also demonstrate a few variations you can easily make to your baklava in your own kitchen. Next, we will dive into 2 savoury filo pastries. One, with spinach and feta and a second appetizer pastry of brie and sundried tomatoes.

About the Chef
I grew up in a traditional Turkish household and always had a passion for cooking. I have taken many culinary courses in Turkiye and Vancouver and now specialize in Turkish & Mediterranean Food. I started my catering business in 2006 and in 2017 I opened my Restaurant Lara Cuisine Cafe Bistro & Catering in Ladner BC. We had a great 6 years (pandemic and all!) and sadly, we closed the restaurant in 2022. I’m continuing my catering business Lara Cuisine Catering and work as a private chef for home parties or special events. I want to introduce you to the ingredients typically used in Turkish cuisine and to teach you how to prepare and combine these in different ways. I look forward in teaching all this in a fun and relaxed setting. You might learn some basic cooking techniques depending on your previous experience, as well as a few neat little secrets. Most of all, you will learn how to prepare a fantastic Turkish/Mediterranean meal to replicate back at home for your family and friends.
