Nando’s ‘head of food’ will be talking a different famous face through a popular recipe from the restaurant each Thursday for a peri-peri cooking class. It’ll be live-streamed on Instagram, where the chicken chain will be releasing digital recipe cards ahead of each episode – which means you can watch and cook along at home. This week British rapper Aitch will be prepping Nando’s Peri-Peri chicken wings, Peri-salted chips and garlic bread. They provide the recipe, it’s down to you to make it cheeky.
You’re safe indoors for now, and that’s exactly how it should be, but it’s not easy. Many of us have come to realise that our hobbies mostly consist of finding great little places to eat in London. We miss our cafés and lunch spots and restaurants, and even though many of us now have time to cook up a storm, it’s just not the same.
Lots of London restaurants and delis have switched to delivery while in lockdown. Some have even begun to share recipes and cooking methods online through live-streaming classes, so customers can make dishes from their menus at home. Morty & Bobs has shown us how to make the perfect grilled-cheese toasty, Bread Ahead has schooled us in the art of doughnut making, while the owner of Greek restaurant The Athenian has revealed the secret to his crispy courgette fritters.
