Cooking School

"Serve fresh young food and mature drink" is an old Irish proverb that is reflected in your cooking courses in Berry Lodge:


Our next scheduled courses:

There are a million things that get our creative juices flowing. Travel does it and so does new introductions to menus like Thai chilli sauce, soy, coconut milk, ginger, coriander, rice, sweet and sour sauces, palm sugar, fish sauce and kaffir lime leaves. Add some of these to our Irish ingredients for example “prawns with lemon grass and mint” or what about fresh vegetables from the garden, cut into nice shapes, stir fried and finished with soy sauce. You can see now that you are well used to using these ingredients and this course is to inspire you to be more adventurous and add some of the other Thai ingredients to your repertoire.

Look what is happening to vegetarian food, we are all eating it for healthy living.  Vegetables and fruit are taking centre stage and are fantastic with herbs and spices and served with rice, potatoes, noodles, pulses and grains. Our day will go from early morning breakfasts with power shakes, muffins and pancakes to quick easy lunches, snacks and suppers, roast pepper soup, gratin of roast pumpkin, leeks, hazelnuts with a Kilshanny cheese sauce, Cauliflower and broccoli tempura with a Thai ginger dip, big root pie with marinated bramleys and chocolate pecan pie with Irish Mist ice cream and marinated citrus fruits. These are just a few ideas that show the different dishes that can appear on to day’s vegetarian menu and we will include some of these with others on your morning of cookery.
