Join Francesco Mazzei this Friday at 6pm for his second cooking masterclass with Grana Padano, themed ‘cooking with kids.’ This week, Francesco’s children will be joining him in the kitchen to demonstrate how to create a family favourite, Lamb meatballs with tomato sauce and Grana Padano. All the ingredients required will be posted on his Instagram page the day before to allow plenty of time to prepare.

World-renowned chef Jason Atherton and founder of @socialeathouse and @pollen_street_social is creating family-friendly cookalongs that he’s named ‘Social Kitchen Isolation’ over on his Instagram feed. Our favourite so far has to be when he made classic beef burgers, which looked divine.
