To celebrate the rise and rise of Alice Zaslavsky’s In Praise of Veg cookbook, Alice (aka @aliceinframes) alongside Providoor founder Shane Delia will be hosting an online masterclass on Sunday 11 April.
Timed perfectly in the middle of school holidays (and with a special appearance from Shane’s daughter), Alice will teach the whole family how to make four of her delicious veg-packed dishes from her new best- selling cookbook, including:
- Whole roasted cauliflower with Maha Secret Spice and Satsibeli
- Mushroom-stuffed potato Zrazy
- Baharat butternut squash tagine
- Six-spice ginger cookies
One of the highlights are the mushroom Zrazy (pronounced Zrah-zii). It’s like all-in-one rissole – a genius combination of everything you’d pop on your plate for lunch or dinner, stuffed into a pan-fried, oblong- shaped parcel: crisp-crusted mashed potatoes, filled with mushroom duxelles (an intensely flavoured mushroom and onion mix). Satsibeli is Georgia’s answer to tomato salsa, with a good hit of garlic and coriander. A real taste and texture sensation.
“The best part about Providoor’s classes like these is that most of the heavy lifting’s already been done for you, so all you’re left to get on with are the good bits – like squishing mashed potato between your fingers and shaping cookies,” says Alice.
The class kit is $130 and includes all the elements and ingredients needed to cook along at home, with a lot of heavy lifting done for you so you can get the kids involved for a veggie forward lunch feast. There is also the option to upgrade your kit with a signed copy of In Praise of Veg for $60.
Providoor x Alice Zaslavsky masterclass sales are now open, with the live class being broadcasted on Sunday 11 April at 12pm (the kits arrive the day before, Saturday 10 April). Orders will close Thursday 8 April unless sold out prior, so get in quick.
