Atul Kochhar ~ June - Beyond the Spice
10am - 3pm.
Atul Kochhar is coming to Grill & Ember!
We are incredibly excited to welcome Atul for a very special day of cooking over fire. Limited to just 8 guests.
Atul will be hosting an intimate masterclass where you’ll cook alongside him using a selection of BBQs and live-fire equipment from the Grill & Ember range, exploring his approach to flavour, spice and fantastic ingredients – all brought together through the excitement of outdoor cooking.
This is a rare opportunity to get up close and cook with one of the UK’s most celebrated chefs, learning techniques, flavour combinations and ideas directly from Atul while discovering just how versatile cooking over fire can be.
From managing heat and building layers of flavour to using spices confidently, creating marinades and getting creative with smoke and flame, Atul will guide you through dishes inspired by his distinctive style of cooking.
Food & drink included. You will eat everything we make and take home anything that is left.
Note: Please inform us of any dietary restrictions or allergies at the time of booking, so we can do our best to accommodate your needs.
A little bit about Atul:
Atul Kochhar is one of the most respected and recognised chefs in the UK, renowned for his modern approach to Indian cuisine and his ability to bring together traditional Indian flavours with exceptional British produce.
Born in India, Atul built his career in some of the country’s leading hotels before moving to the UK in the 1990s. He went on to become the first Indian chef to be awarded a Michelin star, helping to transform perceptions of Indian food in Britain and paving the way for a new generation of chefs.
His cooking is defined by bold, carefully balanced flavours, intelligent use of spice and a deep respect for ingredients. Drawing inspiration from India’s incredibly diverse regional cuisines as well as the produce around him, Atul creates food that feels exciting, generous and full of character.
Over the years, Atul has become a familiar face on British television, appearing on programmes including BBC’s Saturday Kitchen and Great British Menu, while his restaurants and cookbooks have introduced his style of cooking to audiences around the world.
At the heart of Atul’s food is an understanding of how flavour develops – from toasting and layering spices to marinades, smoke, caramelisation and cooking over intense heat.
That makes the BBQ the perfect playground for this masterclass.
At Grill & Ember, Atul will have access to our extensive range of BBQs, grills and outdoor cooking equipment, choosing different ways to cook depending on the dishes and techniques he wants to showcase.
You’ll get the chance to cook alongside him, discover how he approaches cooking over fire and pick up techniques, flavour combinations and ideas that you can recreate on your own BBQ at home.
Most importantly, this is a hands-on day. You won’t simply be watching Atul cook – you’ll be cooking alongside him, asking questions, learning his techniques and, of course, eating everything you create together.
Expect fire, incredible ingredients, aromatic spices, bold flavours and plenty of food – cooked together with Atul Kochhar across the grills at Grill & Ember.
