Cooking Lessons

Cooking for Independence and Fun

I am launching cooking classes for people who wish to learn how to cook more nutritious, tasty food for themselves.

My classes are individually designed to be delivered to people receiving NDIS assistance, however I am happy to teach anyone.

I am a qualified chef, owning four cafes and cooking homestyle food for hungry workers on cattle stations, mine sites, planes and marine vessels.

I have medical indemnity and am studying Aged and Disability Care. Safety is of the highest importance and safe use of kitchen equipment is a priority.

I am based in both Augusta and Manjimup and happy to travel North to Bunbury, inland to Mount Barker area. I can do two-three day sessions classes up to the greater Perth metro area if that’s where you are!

Classes can be ongoing or a limited number of dishes taught – it’s flexible for your goals.

We can also batch cook and freeze your meals in attractive portion containers so can you pull out a favourite every day/night!

Wouldn’t it be lovely to pull out one of your own nutritious, cost effective meals for yourself or to share with a visitor?

I’m happy for your to buddy up with a friend, partner or carer, however  groups are a maximum of two people to enable me to really help you make your favourite dishes with confidence in the future.

 

Suitable for clients who want some or all of the following outcomes:

Learn how to cook those dishes that you’ve always wanted to learn

Learn how to cook simple and easy, to medium-difficulty dishes

Cook in your own home with your own equipment

Learn hacks/tricks to make some tasks more easily tailored to physical limitations

People who want to be more independent in their food choices

Learn how to use kitchen tools properly, such as how to sharpen a knife

Classes can be intensive or just a relaxed slow cooking experience, depending on your style of learning.

 

Lessons can include to excursions to learn more about food:

How to buy ingredients from the supermarket and other food stores to improve your nutrition and cooking experience

What food labelling really means

Take you shopping to local farm stalls and growers for tasting and supplies

Excursion to a hospitality supply store to see what the restaurants use
