When you want to eat amazing food without a great deal of time to cook this might be for you. With Emily, you explore some key ingredients and typical dishes of the Spanish regions, often eaten as tapas, to inspire and transform what you cook at home. You will start by rustling up a quick Fabada – from the Asturian region on the northern coast of Spain- a stew of chorizo, morcilla and beans, before making a traditional Spanish Tortilla. When you finish Emily demonstrates how to make pan con tomate with servings of manchego, iberico, olives, anchovies or jambon serrano – all to taste- alongside a trickle of Spanish sherry – if you wish.
This afternoon event is part of our new series of Fast Cooking Courses.

Emily Carey has been teaching people to cook classic and original dishes for over 8 years, driven by her passion to make home cooking more widely accessible.
Her childhood, in a home where good food, especially Mediterranean food was enjoyed, started her off on a journey of discovery and exploration. She developed an eye for good recipes and learning what foods work well together, adding to this a flair for bringing food and people together, and that became the basis for Get Cooking.
With a simple start in 2010, and the opening of an exciting and unique venue in Farsley in 2016, she has continually incorporated fresh ideas into the business.
Ingredients, an apron and copies of recipes are all provided.
You just need to bring your own medium / large plastic sealable containers to take away the dish(es) you make!
