🧑‍🍳 Had the absolute pleasure of facilitating a private Bao Bun class for such a wonderful family last Sunday afternoon. From rolling out the pillowy soft dough to crafting delicious fillings, the energy, laughter, and culinary talent in the room were top-tier.

There’s nothing quite like bringing people together over good food and learning something new together.

Out at Slieve Gullion Forest Park today serving up a true Hong Kong staple: Wonton Soup. 🥣✨

​These silky dumplings are packed with a savory pork and shiitake mushroom filling, delivering a massive hit of umami in every bite. We’ve had some amazing feedback already: Shoutout to the family who tried them for the first time today and declared them their "new favorite thing!" ☺️👍

🔥 Cookery Sessions in East Belfast – PHA Youth Programme Highlights! 🔥

Over the past three weeks, I’ve had the joy of cooking alongside an amazing group of young participants in East Belfast as part of our PHA programme. Every session was packed with energy, curiosity, and seriously impressive kitchen skills!

🍛 Week 1 – Japanese Karé from Scratch
We kicked things off with a flavour-packed start as the young chefs rolled up their sleeves to make Japanese curry completely from scratch. From slicing veggies to building the perfect roux, they nailed every step!

🥙 Week 2 – Healthy Doner Kebab
For week two, it was all about healthy choices. The group learned how to create their own lean, delicious doner kebabs — proving that takeaway favourites can be both tasty and nutritious.

🎂 Week 3 – Sweet Treats
Our final week was dessert heaven. The class whipped up Chocolate Cake with Cherry Glaze & Coconut Cream, followed by a zesty Lemon Cheesecake Mess. The creativity, teamwork, and attention to detail were top-tier.

✨ These young participants truly knocked it out of the park each week. Their enthusiasm made every class a joy, and it was brilliant to see them grow in confidence as they explored new flavours and skills.

Here’s to more cooking, learning, and fun in the kitchen! More sessions to be delivered!🔥🍽️

🔥 FIRED Cookery School – Silk Road Sessions Wrap-Up! 🔥

Over the past few weeks, I’ve had the absolute pleasure of welcoming incredible carers into the kitchen to explore flavours and stories from across Asia. Together, we travelled along our own “Silk Road” — full of learning, laughter, and lots of good food. ❤️

🥟 Dumplings
We kicked things off with a dumpling masterclass! There were mountains of dumplings and even more smiles. The warm, homely atmosphere gave everyone a chance to unwind, chat, and connect with fellow carers.

🇰🇷 Korean Ban Chan & Bibimbap
Next stop: Korea! 안녕하세요 🇰🇷
Carers got hands-on with Korean ban chan and built their own vibrant bibimbap bowls — a perfect mix of flavour, colour, teamwork, and creativity.

🇨🇳 Hakka-Chinese Cuisine
For our final class before a wee break, we explored Hakka cooking — a culture close to my heart through my father’s side.
“Hakka” (客家) means guest families, reflecting a history of migration and resilience. Carers learned about this rich heritage while diving into hearty, flavourful Hakka dishes.

✨ It’s been inspiring to see carers come together, learn new skills, share stories, and enjoy the joy that cooking brings. Thank you all for bringing your energy, curiosity, and kindness into the FIRED kitchen.
