Famously delicious, the “Mediterranean Diet”, rich in olive oil, vegetables and seafood is also one of the healthiest — the region has some of the lowest rates of chronic diseases and one of the highest life expectancies in the world.

Join caterer, author and host Peter Minaki of Kalofagas for a delicious, hands-on introduction to authentic Greek cooking, with recipes from his latest book, The Everything Mediterranean Cookbook.

Fried Calamari
A true Greek classic that’s surprisingly fast and easy to make yourself.

Fish “Plaki” Style
Baked on a bed of potatoes, tomatoes, and peppers, with parsley, oregano and olive oil – a hearty all-in-one comfort food dinner.

Winter Greens Salad with Kalamata Olive Dressing
A crisp, refreshing side, packed with flavours and dark leafy greens.

This is a great chance to learn about the techniques and ingredients that makes Mediterranean food so wonderful from a friendly and deeply knowledgeable cook. Peter will also have signed copies of his cookbook available at the workshop, with lots more recipes for you to try at home.
