Christmas Sparkle At Belle Isle Cookery Schoool

November 2010: If you are in search of a little sparkle to add to your Christmas this year then Belle Isle is just the place to find it. Come and join chef Liz Moore for an evening of Christmas entertaining ideas for your friends and family. For one night on Monday 6th December Liz will move the cookery school to Belle Isle Castle where you can sit in the splendour of the banqueting hall with a glass of wine in your hand soaking up fresh new ideas for Christmas glamour on a plate.

Starting at 7pm, Liz will take you through wonderful prepare-in-advance ideas for not so traditional Christmas fare. Recipes may include smoked salmon roulade with scallop mousse, rack of venison with a port and wine sauce and clementine puddings. There will also be many samples for tasting on the night as well as a full set of recipes for everyone. Gift vouchers will be on sale as well as a selection of items suitable for Christmas gifts from the cookery school shop.

Places are limited and entrance is by ticket only price £30 so please telephone Andrea on 028-6638 7231 (048 6638 7231 from ROI) to be sure of your place.

For anyone who would prefer to do a full day’s hands-on cooking the Belle Isle School of Cookery has a number of great seasonal courses during November and December. Why not try your hand at “Christmas cakes and bakes “ on November 30th, “Christmas starters and desserts” on December 8th or one of the three “Festive Food” days on December 13th, 14th and 15th. You will find a full list of courses and description at www.irish-cookery-school.com.

For those of you visiting this year’s Food & Wine Magazine Christmas show at the RDS in Dublin from 26th to 28th November be sure to watch Liz Moore doing a chef demonstration on Friday 26th at 5.30pm.
