Class structure

Cooking with your classmates is an integral part of your Leiths experience. You will cook some of your recipes in pairs, and some independently – whatever the ratio, there is always more than enough food, and often food to take home too.

Your day will comprise of a mixture of hands on cookery and demonstrations performed by the chef who is running the session. The exact format will vary from class to class depending on the style of cuisine and, in the case of visiting chefs, their individual teaching style.

Unless otherwise stated, you will be eating the food that you have cooked during your class for lunch, usually with wine or elderflower cordial around a communal table. If your class does not involve cooking lunch you will enjoy delicious sharing platters prepared by the school.

Allergies and dietary restrictions

Angela Malik

Former Leiths Diploma student Angela Malik has established herself as a successful teacher. She is known for combining exciting flavours with fantastic, seasonal British ingredients and is a recognised expert of Asian food.

Angela has appeared as a regular panellist on BBC Radio 4 the Kitchen Cabinet and on shows such as C4 Sunday Brunch, ITV This Morning and Kirstie Allsop’s Perfect Christmas.

Angela was brilliant - she gave us more knowledge that just "this is how you cook this particular dish". The knowledge about the 5 taste sensations and how techniques that you can't really write down but only teach in person was invaluable. It was brilliant being in a room with people who were as passionate and interested in cooking as me. I'd come again no questions asked, especially if Angela was the teacher! Thanks chef!

"A 4-hour life-changing introduction to the modern Indian kitchen with the dynamo that is Angela Malik. A former City forensic accountant, Angela was born in Edinburgh after her parents left India for Scotland. Her father, a vegetarian Hindu, ran restaurants across the country and warned her off a culinary career. Thankfully, it proved impossible to suppress her natural talent and passionate desire to share her lifelong understanding of not just the tastiest recipes, but the whole backstory to choosing the best ingredients, menu combinations for a healthy lifestyle, and the taste sensations that inform our eating. This half-day course is so much more than a cookery lesson. Angela's a born teacher and lives to share her knowledge. Lucky us! If you're lucky enough to get a place on one of her courses, I guarantee it will change the way you shop, cook and eat. Oh and the food is sublime..."

What a great ambassador Angela is for Indian cookery. Her enthusiasm is infectious, her knowledge is second to none and she has given us so much to think about, in the way we cook and eat our Indian food moving forwards. Thank you for inspiring so many people to want to cook and understand Indian food so much more.
