This week it was time for our mains. We worked well together to produce two fantastic curries and two fantastic bolognaises. We were able to work with different spices and use other kitchen equipment like slow cookers, food processers and pestle and mortars.
Week 3
This week was our chance to prepare our starters. We made all the school jealous because of the beautiful soup smell coming from our room all day.
In total we made 6 litres of soup and not one drop was left in the end.
Come dine with me.
