Learn to roll thin dough, prepare the filling and fold samsa into triangles.
While they bake we lay the table — and taste them straight from the tandoor.
Samsa is Uzbekistan's favourite street food: baked in tandoors in the morning, sold hot at bazaars and eaten with tea. The classic filling is chopped lamb with onion and a little tail fat, which keeps the samsa juicy and the pastry crisp.
In the class you go through every stage: kneading and rolling thin dough, preparing the filling and folding. Folding samsa into a triangle is an art of its own, and the master shows you how to make sure it doesn't open in the tandoor. Then the samsa go onto the walls of the hot oven and come out golden.
While they bake we lay the table, then taste them hot with tea. About 2 hours, up to 8 people, suitable for all ages.
