Waste Not, Want Dumplings: A Hands-On Cooking Class

  • Family and kids
  • Workshop

Join a fun and practical cooking class that turns those sad, forgotten veggies at the back of your fridge into something delicious – dumplings!

In this hands-on session with Chef Tobie Puttock (and his daughter Birdie), you'll work together to learn how to transform leftover vegetables into flavour-packed dumpling fillings using simple techniques and pantry staples. You'll explore creative combinations, tips for balancing texture and taste, and how to fold dumplings like a pro (don’t worry, it’s easier than it looks). You'll get to enjoy freshly cooked dumplings on the day and a batch to take home to freeze or share.

Whether you're looking to reduce food waste, save money, or just love dumplings, this class will leave you feeling inspired and well-fed.

Note: Class suits kids ages 10+. A parent / carer must also attend with children under 15 years old. Each ticket is for 1 person.
