Overview

Learn to cook from a local in this private 4-hour cooking class in an Istanbul home. The friendly mother-daughter team of Nuray and Ipek will introduce you to the delights of Turkish home cooking. Join them in learning how to prepare içli köfte (stuffed bulgar meatballs), karniyarik (eggplant stuffed with mincemeat and tomatoes), barbunya pilaki (beans stewed in a tomato and lemon sauce), and more. Help out with tasks such as chopping vegetables, wrapping börek, and frying eggplant, then sit down with your hosts to enjoy your freshly prepared meal with a glass of local wine.
